Mine are a different color. I wouldn't mind one like that though Here's an older pic of one...the other is more of a pink color. They both look amazing under blue moon lights!

Mine did that once too, it seemed like it didn't like where it was or something.

They do that though from time to time. It will rebuild a new tube when it cruises somewhere else. It uses dead nematocyts to create a new tube.

That is why I got rid of it though. I didn't like the idea of it moving around on me.

Mine seemed to like moderate flow, not too high.

It should be fine, but I would check your parameters just to make sure.
