do you think that the Duncan under it is in danger or should i not be worried

I’d think they’re both in danger if you don’t know what lights you got lol.. that’s kinda important just like testing for nitrates, phosphates, calcium, alkalinity and magnesium… if the torch decides to fully open I’m sure it could reach the Duncan thou..

didn't see that i would move the duncan rather than the torch though and troylee has a point if you don't know what light you have could be a freshwater light cause the torch does not look extended at all eather does the duncan this is what they look like when fully extended (not the 1 on the right it's just not happy in my tank atm)

on amazon it says its a reef light definitely not the best or even a good light but my other one went out and i needed a quick replacement

For it to be happy you’ll want it in moderate flow and light. Think about the future corals you want and where you want it. Put the torch in an area with the flow and light I mentioned where it won’t be in contact with your other corals, except it can be in contact with other torches if you plan to add more.
