So recently my one torch coral hasn’t been extending its tentacles very far out and kinda has them retracted some bit. It kind of happened overnight within last week or so. Use to always have long flowing tentacles and sweepers too. Been in tank going on 3 months not much has change parameters wise. Calcium 450 alk 9.3 magnesium 1400 nitrate and phosphate really low. Bio load is very small only 3 fish rn have had many problems with fish. It is in the process of splitting. Started with 2 heads and you can see where the one head is in the middle of splitting looks fairly close to being done. Dipped it last week in case nothing came off. Can this be because of the splitting process. One of my other torches was really retracted last week looked like it was dying. Also is splitting then tentacles came out and has been completely fine since. Any ideas?
