Should i worry? Plate coral

This only happens at night so I'm thinking it has something to do with feeding. IDK.

Normally it looks like this if not more flat but you get the idea.

I would watch it but if it looks ok during the day, I wouldn't worry too much. LPS have weird habits/cycles (e.g. feeding, expelling waste, splitting, etc), so might just be doing its normal thing.

What's it look like now? Fungia can do some wild stuff but usually it's self-correcting. I have seen mine blow up smooth and look like they've turned themselves inside out. On the other hand, One of mine was looking really weird one night and I figured it would be fine by morning. It was not and once the lights kicked on I could see that it was actually upside down! They can puff themselves up to move around the tank a bit and sometimes I guess they puff up a bit too much and get turned over?

it looks fine now. it may have gotten some harder fish food in it or something. idk but all is well now.

Outstanding! Fungia are some of my favorite specimens.
