One side of torch not extending

[cpate]

The left side of my 2 torch’s are not extending and are puffy. I thought maybe they were splitting but this has been going on for about a month now. Any ideas?

Cal- 440
Alk-8.3
Mg- 1200 (slowly raising it to 1350)
Nitrate- 10

What's the lighting and flow like in that area?

looks ok to me, did you feed the tank recently.

About half up on a 24” tank with Kessil/T5 fixture.. medium/high flow.

Ok, no not recently.. I’ve had the green tip one about a year now and it’s just started looking this way in the last month or so.

Have your water parameters been stable?

My magnesium did slip down to 1120 in the last week but I’m working to pull it back up.

Has the flow changed on that side of the Torch in the last month? Blocked or more flow? My torch is very sensitive to the amount of flow it wants to be fully extended.
