Hello all!

I have one torch that has about half of its tentacles that look super recessed. I thought that one of my fish might have nipped at it because I have seen her trim GSP out of her way when swimming around and this guy was at a bit of a choke point before I just moved it. It’s only been a few days since it was moved, but I wanted to see if there were any other opinions on what might be happening with it. Everything else looks super happy so I’m not sure . Thanks for your ideas!

Potentially ready to split a new head? They look kinda awful when that process starts sometimes
 
Thanks for the idea! I hadn’t considered that. It does look like half of the head is still happy so I was thinking something was messing with it.
