I have two torches near each other and earlier today both were very active and out but tonight the one in front is now shrunk down more than normal. Would this be from anything between the two of them? Should I move it a little further away?
 
It’s normal that torches shrink at night. No signs of fighting between the two corals. As long as it looks good in the day and no tissue recession it should be fine. I kept my torches relatively close to each other with no issue.

I’ve watched it retract before, but it’s retracted more than normal and it was a lot longer than normal during the day. Just not sure if they were fighting with each other in anyway.

They both look like Indo torches to me, so i dont think they would fight,

Your Cal is a little high and your MG is a little low, but if theyre stable i dont see why i torch would get mad.

Have they been in you tank long?
