Proper Flow For Torches

I think the key is random flow. As long as they're not blown in one direction all the time, I would let them be and just watch them. It could take some time for the others to adjust. Looks like a great collection!
 
The flow around my torch corals is about the same.
 
Thank you everyone! I guess I will leave them as is. I read that the worst thing to do is constantly change things and that consistency is the key to success, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't blasting them with too much flow. I really appreciate the reply's!:)

Looks good. I believe the Aussie Gold Torch is an exception to the flow based on a YouTube video from Tidal Gardens on torches. Supposedly they are collected at the mouth of river which have turbulent flow.

Great video and exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for posting this!!! :)
 
My torches get hit pretty hard, the hammer I have in low flow has poly bailout all the time and is far from direct flow unlike my torches.
