My torch corals will deflate probably once a day is this normal behavior? They tend to inflate shortly after and look normal for the rest of the day.

Don’t think that’s out of the ordinary. Mine are inflated the entire time the lights are on and slowly deflate after lights out. As long as it doesn’t stay deflated the whole time you are fine.
 
Constantly, as of late unfortunately, UGH!!! I moved several frags to my 40B in order to build my 225 upgrade, along with several fish, and I have 2 Blue/Green Chromis that decided to host my TSA Black Panther, aka, NY Knicks torch at night or when they feel threatened. It does come out still, but not nearly to its fullest because of this.

Sweet! Usually after 1 deflates my other one will follow suit. Only 3 of my 5 torches will do this just not sure why or if I should be concerned...

First one already starting to inflate again.

Oh interesting... I've never seen my fish near the torches but I'll keep an eye out! Only have 2 fish in the tank!
