Torch Coral Twisting

[ilott]

Hello

My torch coral’s tentacles appear to be twisted, I’m worried something is incorrect with my water quality/placement as i’ve never seen this before

It’s stretched out across the tank by about 6 inches... it doesn’t appear to be unhappy?

Unfortunately I cannot open the attachment! Can you post some pictures of the torch if you have any please?

Are you referring to them curling a little at the ends? I too can not see the video.

This is what it looks like its doing. Video plays on my phone. Otherwise nice color and great polyp extension. I haven't seen that before either, though.

Did you mean to include a screenshot? Lol

Sure I can load a screenshot of it here for OP.

@ilott my New York Knicks torch does that from time to time as well. It’s still a relatively recent addition but I don’t think anything is particularly wrong with it. Knicks is in the middle.

Also sorry for the crummy iPhone photo lol

Did this ever get better for your torch? I'm seeing ridiculous "twisting" off my colony over the past couple months thus trying to get ahead of whatever the issue could be.

Same here. But only my massive colony, none of frags are twisting

Mine has straighten up, but still not super long extension. I started losing heads months ago which I started thinking about fragging to save, but ended up doing nothing since I just didn't have enough time with life. Eventually the loss stopped and I did lose 25% of it, but at least the loss stopped on it's own without intervention. Prob could have saved some heads if I did something... or lost more heads from the stress. I will never know, but the twisting did stop. FYI.
