So if Polyphemus has an affect like the moon does on Earth, the tidal changes would be pretty dramatic. Does Pandora rotate? That also affects the tides, and if it is locked in rotation (like our moon always faces us with the same side) that would mean the ocean would be deeper at the side facing Polyphemus since there would be a bulging affect.
