ur underwater current too strong? when i left my cyarina on the sand bed, it doesnt open much. the moment i shift it to the rocks, it open. plus feeding the pratas regularly with market prawns will help them grow.

i quote from aquarium corals

"scolymia seem to expand most in lower currents and moderate lights and are tolerant of lower light levels than most corals"

your lights seem fine so i suggest you check water flow

in any case, please measure your water parameters
