Is my torch on its deathbed?

[DesignNerd]

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 other corals seem to be thriving. It's been barely open for the past 2-3 weeks.

Tank Age: 6 months
Size: AIO Waterbox 35gal
Mag: 1350 (just dosed this to slightly raise it)
Alk: 8.1
Cal: 450
Nitrates: 12pm
Salinity: 1.25
PH: 8ish
Flow: Nero 3 running 10%-50% on random during the day. Just reduced it to see if that's the issue.
Lighting: AI Prime 9" above the water. Reduced Saxby with lower whites.

Very receded from stress
Too much light and/or water flow are possibilities as use:
Low calcium
High phosphates

I think my Nero 3 position may have been blasting it with too much flow. I've reduced it drastically. I keep my light power relatively on the lower end.

Any possibility the hammers may be stinging it at night?

Any chance it will improve?

That will definitely do it
They should sway and not be bent over

Euphyllia likes higher Mag. Try raising it to 1500.

I’m not up to speed on parameters. I don’t test much and do weekly water changes. I have a few torches and run a Nero 3 - Random, 30-36% power and very high randomness. I hope this helps.

Check the base of the torch. Looks like I might be seeing some flatworm eggs? I recently bought a beautiful torch that suddenly turned to crap overnight and died during the day. I discovered flatworms and a bunch of eggs on the stem. Unfortunately coral dip was a bit too harsh and late for me to save the little guy. You might have had eggs that hatched after awhile being in the tank since coral dips don't kill the eggs
