Anyone else have curly q green star polyps? Mine curl up something fierce after the lights come on for a bit.

Pic as I normally see them:

Pic just after lights have come on (still showing some of the curl):

Awesome looking.
What lighting is it? Do they do that on blue/actinic or after that when the rest of the lights come on?

Mark, all lights kick on together.

24 cree led-12 ea rb and cw, 4 t5 ho, 2 actinic and two 10k.

Always have some curl, but within an hour or so of lights on they are 'permed'

I don't specifically feed the green stars.  I put in cyclopeze about once a week, and a mix of mysis and other food about 3 times per week for the fish.  I will spot feed the lps in the tank about 2/month.  But they look like this all the time, whether or not I've fed the tank.
