Closed Leathers

I Need Help With My Leathers- I Have Two Tree Corals, Sorry Not Sure Exactly What Are, But For Some Reason They Have Closed Up, They Look Like They Usually Do At Night All The Time. Any Ideas What Could Cause This? Parameters Are All Good And Everything Else Looks Fine. Thanks

They just do that. It's normal, and completely expected. It's just another of the nuances of having a reef tank. (They can stay closed for weeks to months, depending - don't worry yet.)

My leathers also closed for a few days. I moved them closer to the lights and they opened right up. Maybe a bit more water flow will also help---Anthony
