GSP does close up when introduced to a new tank alot of times, however the smokey stuff I have no idea. When mine closed up it took about three weeks to open fully back up and has been growing like crazy ever since. good luck

Ditto. They aren't happy with something either because of the move or with your tank. Please post some background info about your tank and a list of corals currently in your tank would be helpful.
