torch coral help

I got this torch on feb 24th and for the first few days it was fine, but I change my skimmer, went through a bacteria boom, had problems with zero phos/nitrate, but I've dosed phos/nitrate to keep it at a stable level, but it's still not extending fully and I'm not really sure why. I just moved...

Is my torch on its deathbed? It was nice and big for a while when it first entered the tank and then it began splitting. Photo coloring is terrible but there is no brown slime at the moment. The center does have this bubble look to it. I did dip this and all my other corals before adding It. All...

Hey everyone, So I have 5 torches in my tank and for the last week and half 2 have been acting strange and I'm not sure whats going on. The issue is a little hard to describe but some of the tentacles have been retracted and super reflective (almost bright white) and I'm not sure if it's just...

My torch has never done this when the blues come on. Tonight it’s got super tiny. Is this thing getting ready to try to bail?! I tagged dying because I need to change something if it’s getting too much flow or what’s going on here before it bails. Usually it’s fluffier than this when the blues...

Hello everyone, I've woken up today to my torch coral looking as if it's attempting to leave it's skeleton! I have read other posts about this strange event occurring and I have came to understand that it is a result of the coral being unhappy with its conditions. Probably unstable salinity in...

So I got this Aussie torch from a fish store kinda local to me. They didn’t really tell me what it was. It kinda looks like firefly coloration to me but I figured I’d ask you guys. I don’t really do LPS outside of candy canes and acans so torch names are new to me. I’ve had it like 6 months now...

So I am not new to SW. I AM new to torches. We have 1 torch so far in my biocube. It’s doing great. I found a new friend who is selling me a Todds torch. Can it touch my firefly torch without coral warfare? It has way longer tentacles than mine. I’m not sure about the indo/Aussie and all that...

Hello, wondering if this torch is spawning and if there is anything I could do if it is to help keep the babies alive?

One of the heads on my torch was closed up the other day, and I saw a black dot on it. Next it went straight into some coral RX and some critters fell off... https://photos.app.goo.gl/XP4exzjVkvCwNzPc9 The head still isn't open (not even a day after the dip, but still...), so I'm hoping...

So got a banana torch last week started out very great noticed the flesh in one spot was a little short so i kept it in lower flow and after a couple days i noticed the flesh start to recede in that spot. Pulled it out and did a dip in reef dip for about 4 minutes and put it back in the tank in...

I noticed my torch was leaving its skeleton. So last light I put it in a low flow area. Now the torch is completely alive but not in its skeleton. What should I do to keep it alive? Any help is appreciated.
