I’m not sure how to post pictures, I am fairly new to this website but I have a three torch corals. One of them is a Jade, the other is an Indo yellow tip with green tentacle torch, and the one I’m having trouble with is a green tip and black tentacle torch. My green tip has shorter tentacles compared to the other two and they’re not even close to an inch or two long. How can I help it recover or gain length to its tentacles ? It opens up during the day so it’s very much alive but I want it to get back to normal. Any one know what I can I do to help it ???

Some torchs are short tentacle. And dont extend. Maybe the one you have is one of the short ones.

My fav LPS question, do ya target feed em? It can help if they are able to consume meaty foods once in a while I find (I chop up mysid or Calanus). I do have troubles it seems feeding tho if they are not doing well.

otherwise time and patience if every other coral is doing well IMO.
