Good Evening,

This torch coral has been in my tank for 24hrs now, I have noticed that at least three tentacle tips are brown / (growth / shriveled unsure honestly but its a thing on the tip).

I dipped the coral in revive, basted and placed, have not touched since.

Please see below photos!

Were they therw before the dip? Only 24hrs after dip and placement, still adjusting allow for a few days to a week for it to settle into its new home.

They were about half out into the dip I did my best basting, then placed after clean water rinse.

During and after rinse they tucked away completely, next morning they were out like this, just didn't know if they would grow longer?

Also do tentacles themselves grow longer as they age?
