Probably time to consider surgery to get the coraline head off.

Check your Phosphates! I lost 5 heads of my Indo torch before I figured it out. Nitrates as well. Mine had bottomed out.

Should I immediately take it to WWC for surgery or should I wait till I have the better light and flow come Saturday?

Well I took it to WWC, got it fragged and lost 2 heads, lost some tears in the process bc man this hurts with it being my first torch :(
I was able to save 1 head so we shall see how it goes, praying the coral gods save my torch
