    Well its a day after I fed him and straight after the feed he was beautiful!
    I got home about 20mins a go and he looked normal like he did before feeding, but about 5mins ago after I did a few water tests and maintenance he has all closed up! is this normal in a coral?
    Its a Pearl Bubble Coral btw...
    anyway pic here
    Please let me know if it is normal :)

    Yes they do that. Usually any minor distrubances or a new enviornment will make them close up till they adjust to their new settings and/or feel comfortable to re open

    It still looks fine, the flesh is all there and receded too bad. It should be fine. I have one and it does close up from time to time.
