tank is 34g, i have had it for 2 months, but I bought it used and running.. it's a solana, so I use live rock and a skimmer.. the water params are normal, I don't have that off the top of my head, so I can't get that right now.. but thanks for your support, anyway it's looking great again, I guess it does that as part of its digestive cycle? It shriveled for a few hours, and by the end of the day it was fine.

Yes when they eat something they turn into a ball shape.. But that's normal for your purple tip.
