Hi all, my waving hand coral has been growing well and starting to tilt to one side. Is there anything I should do to whether leave it alone or move it to a more stable location? Thanks! Raymond

It really won't cause problems.. Is it just from too much flow? Is it directly effected by your powerheads..
You can move it if you are concerned but I wouldn't..
I've got a 12"+ umbrella leather that is "tilted" a good 6" or so from flow.. It just keeps stretching and is just fine..

Thanks. It looks the same whether the powerhead on or not. It looks like it's going to detach from the rock soon, and I thought maybe there is something I should do. I never frag or cut a coral before so I like to get some inputs and direction on how to.

It's sitting a few inches from other corals. I don't know if there is too much stress to the root with the bending and if it's going to die. Thanks.
