    In my opinion yes. See the tentacles being whipped around like that? It will eventually irritate the euph or worse cause tears in the flesh from them bashing into their own skeleton which could lead to bacterial infection like BJD. I'd find another spot for it and it will be very happy.

    use the youtube tag to embed videos, ingtar. </youtube> at the end, and <youtube> at the beginning, with the video number (Uz4k0CkHeRo for this video) inside those two.

    maybe slightly too much... but the fact that it is extended and not retracted real far means that it might not be to much. maybe wait and see if it starts becoming irritated and then make the decision?

    Yes, a bit much. Mine seems to like a gentle swaying with some pulsing current.
