Help! For the last 5 days my torch corals have been closed up. Not sure what’s going on. I tried adjusting the flow and lighting but nothing is helping .

Alkalinity 9.4
Calcium 430
Phosphate 0.01
Nitrate .04
salinity 1.026

Don't adjust lighting. The more you do that the more stressed everything will be.

You have 0 nitrate and 0 phosphate which is an issue (I doubt your test kit is actually able to tell 0.01).
