Stop touching it dylan, leave it alone and it might recover!

How long has it been in the tank?

It may still be suffering from the move.

Just blow the cyno off with a turkey baster and see how it goes.

Cheers

Kev

Tankless at the moment :-(

Hopefully not long to wait

IMO it could do with some polyp extension but that can take time and varies on each indivdual setup from what i can tell from pics and info it looks fine i wouldn't worry
