I have 3 torches that have been slowly dying the past couple of months where the soft tissue in top slowly dies off leaving the skeleton where the head was… they’ve been in the same spots and very happy until a couple months ago. I can’t figure out why… I’ve had these torches 1-2 years with no issues…I haven’t seen any animals munching on them besides a hermit crab was on top of one a month ago but removed him… I’ve never heard of hermits eating corals though. My hammers and other euphyllia are doing well. anyone have ideas? Pictures beliw
