I have a green and pink 3 headed torch probably 2 months been in at this point, 2 heads are open but one is super retracted :/
Any help would be awesome

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.
 
Started the tank in July, my parameters are relatively straight, been working on getting better flow and I’ll have a AI light Saturday
 
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

I would really like you to lit your parameters and Im assuming moderate flow and light? Also you turned the flow off for the pictures?
