i moved from a acylic 75gal to a glass 75 and i rinsed all my sand due to it was dry sand when bought and did not know to rinse it. water same depth but i did put the coral in the middle of tank under light on sand when befor was off to the side a little. and looked like was doing ok. then i seen all the mouths have what looked like brown (color could be off i am partly color blind but i belive it was brown) smoke/film strung out about 3-4 inchs long.

i have moved it off to side like it was used to and i think is doing good

I'm not positive. Mine did the same thing but did not make it. It seems, as you say, it is doing better so lets hope for the best.

It was probably just pooping. They'll do this on occasion. Sometimes when a coral is receiving too much light though, they'll expel their zooxanthellae like that too. (not good)
