I just got this torch a few days ago. It’s opening completely and the polyps away gently in the flow. I want to know if it’s ok in this spot before I glue it down. It’s on the corner in a biocube 32 led so it’s getting decent flow but not direct flow.

It does look a bit shrunk but not unhealthy. Good skeleton health as well. Just keep avoiding heavy direct flow and you should be good. Only way I ever lost a torch head was by blasting it with flow from just one side and it bailed

Well when I took that pic I had just turned my whites back on from going blue to take the picture. It kinda shrinks up at night. That being said it was kinda stubby like that when I got it. I’ve only had it since Thursday. Here’s the tank it came from.

I’ve got the flow coming around fhe bend of the from of the tank right now to it. Is that too direct? Added another video showing my flow pattern.
