I've had this guy about 2 weeks now and he's always been drooping like this. His polyps do extend more than the picture however it's kinda sporadic. My phosphates are probably a little higher than recommended but my torch and frogspawn are doing okay.

Is this something I should be worried about? I do see some browning on his stem but that was there since the LFS. at first I thought the powerheads were tipping his rock but theres a definite crease in his stem. I think he moves side to side sometime too, any ideas ? thanks ~
