So I looked down at my tank after a feeding and noticed something strange with my torch. At first I thought it was a piece of bubble algae or somthing stuck to a tentacle. Upon further observation it appears 2 or 3 tentacles have tied themselves in a knot. Lol. What should I do in this situation? Is this going to cause any issues.

I tried to take a photo but it was very difficult.

Observe right now. Keep us updated. The torch should be just fine and recover.
 
I've had it happen before, looked it up online people said to leave it. My torch had 3 tentacles tangled tentacles for a few days until the tips fell off, and then they grew back eventually. It would seem really difficult to untangle so I just left it.
