What could be causing this crack in the grout at the front of my tub?

We just had two bathrooms redone, and ~4 months after the bath was installed I noticed this crack in the grout at the front of the tub. When the tub is filled the crack gets bigger. I want the company that did the work to fix this, but I also want it to be done correctly.

I'm worried that the tub is not seated correctly and is sinking when it is full.

The Project Manager is guessing that it is because the acrylic tub is flexing and maybe needs to have some silicone caulk there instead.
