Normally my RBTA is HUGE and happy and I've had him for like 9 months. Tonight, it's mouth is open (never seen it do this), it has moved from it's normal location and is not looking good. I just switched from PC's to LED's and have been working on acclimating the lighting, is this a sign that the lighting is too weak/strong, or does this have nothing to do with lighting? Everything else in the tank looks good. I'm having trouble getting a pic since it's in the corner and the tentacles are waving around.

Moving is prob from the light change, I wouldn't worry about the mouth unless it stays open, I often catch my nems pooping and they look deflated with mouth open. Be careful when turning up LEDs, if you make the tank look as bright as it did with your previous lights, it's too much. Just double check your parameters, and your nem should find a spot it's happy with once you finish adjusting your lights.

They have been on about 40-50% power, but I did turn the whites up briefly last night (to about 75%) to take some pictures, and apparently forgot to turn it back down. I noticed it when I came home from work today and turned it back down. Could this cause it and should I be worried? Hopefully I'm freaking out about nothing, but sometimes I think this hobby is going to give me a heart attack.
