Ok so I just did a water change and made sure that the temps were within 1 degree of the display and the SG of the new water I made .oo1 saltier and since I don't add any supplements to the display thats the only thing I checked. This was about 3-4 hours ago. Since then my coral (all softies) have looked less then optimal. The xenia has opened up and started pumping but is not as open as usual. The encrusting gorgonian is fully open. Other than that the 2 leather frags haven't opened their polyps and the mushrooms are not expanded (kinda shriveled in a way) and the sinularia seems like it's about halfway between "closed" and open extension.
Is this normal during a WC? I am not new to keeping reef aquariums but it has been a while since I've had one up and forget the exact details of things like this. Oh by the way, everything looked good and happy before the WC. I just don't remember coral taking this long to return to condition before. Thanks.
