After work today I looked at the tank and saw my lobo attacking one side of my torch with its mesenterial filaments! I separate them and the torch seems ok for now, but there are still filaments attached in the spot I moved them apart. I siphoned some off of the torch but I’m afraid I’m going to damage the torch even more if I keep siphoning the coral tentacles.

Any thoughts? Should I keep removing more or should the torch be okay now?
 
The torch should be okay. I would stop siphoning it and let it recover on its own
