Does torch close when splitting?

My torch is in the process of splitting. A couple of days ago it just stopped opening up. Also the polyps have thickened it looks really weird. I’ve had it for around a month and before it was closed it was thriving.

Probably getting ready to split like ya said. Give it time. Thick sweepers are good. It’s getting ready to split so they will consume and stay somewhat closed all good imo
