Hey I’m new to torch, can use some help identify if something goes wrong with my tank 🙏. My torch looked this way with mouth wide open since this morning after I fed coral food. Is this normal? It’s been a few hours. Checked water parameters, KH 8.0, CA 400, NH3 0, PO4 0, NO3 15, PH 8.0

my torches retract if I blast them with coral food. I would just continue to observe if everything else looks ok and it just started after feeding. Your parameters are ok, not sure what tester you used for your phosphate.
 
It looks even worse today...Is this some potential disease on the torch that infected it?
