Hi all,
I followed the acclimation protocol. Floated for about 30 minutes. Dripped for a bit, dipped for 15 min. Super glued them to rock.

I think I accidentally irritated then when holding them down for 20 seconds to let the glue form a bond. My fingers pinched their poylps a little. Are they just stressed or did I trigger a slow death for them? My alkalinity is 8.25, salinity is 35 ppm, temp is 78F. No ammonia or nitrate.

They just look stressed. Give it some time. When i move my torches from time to time i always end up pinching snd cutting tentacles. They recover just fine
