AGH Finger leather has deflated!

[TnTrouble]

Hi again, all!

Good news, thanks to IPisces, my red open brain coral is looking awesome. Unfortunately, another coral is causing me angst. :noidea:

A few days ago a purchased a finger leather, and he was doing great! Yesterday, though, he deflated entirely. I hear this is normal, but wanted to check in to see. I'll attach a link with a picture here.

Thanks!
Taylor

Yes that is normal for many leather corals.
As long as it doesn't start to rot, it should bounce back.
If it does this alot, then maybe a water change is in order, and maybe a little more flow in the area.

Thank you! Whew-- good to know that it's not wildly weird!

I've got a large tank full of leathers and at any given time atleast one may not look its best.

Yeah, mine also seems to go in cycles.
