I got this torch a few days ago via mail and as you can see it’s very unhappy
After I got it I immediately dipped it and got it in the tank and it spent 2 days on the sand bed while I was figuring out where to place it
While in the sand I didn’t see any problems with it. It seemed to be happy and flourishing
Yesterday I moved it up onto the rock next to my other torches and wake up this morning to it looking like this
Is it possible other torches are stinging it or maybe a light issue? The only parameter that’s a bit off is my temp is 80
Everything else including sps look happy and healthy

Looks like a very p'o torch, very unhappy. If it was happy the first day, I don't know if it's a good idea to put it back to that spot or not. I currently have issues with a very fickle torch.
 
It is possible the other torches are irritating it. I have even heard of (No first-hand experience with) torches from different localities becoming aggressive toward each other.

If you had good extension before, I may move it back, and take a good look at what may be different.
