I'm not sure how it happened, but the powerhead(wavemaker) was set to high and as a result the torch coral that I have is being forced too much to the right - as a result it appears stretched (as per photo).

Since then I've lowered the wavemaker setting. I"m wondering if I should take the Torch and turn it around 180 deg, so that it faces the opposite direction.

Or will the torch recover itself?

Thanks

Leave it! Corals are very adaptable if you leave them alone! Observe it over a couple of days but don't move it around just yet! :)

Ok, thanks. I'm wondering what should I be looking out for in the next few days?

Whether or not it is thriving :) Whether or not it "looks happy" :) Is it out, open etc.
