I don't know much about that particular coral. What are the basic water parameters and how long has the coral been in the tank?

Assuming your water parameters are in order, Catalaphyllia (Elegance) corals will periodically deflate themselves in a similar fashion to anemones - I would guess for similar reasons - to expel waste. At least mine does. The first 10 times or so my wife was convinced that something horrible was happening - now she ignores it like I do. It will re-expand in a day or so.
