Good Morning,

I’ve noticed my torch seems to be splitting but not growing a new skeleton. It’s been getting worse over the last couple of weeks. The “head” still opens up nice and big but I don’t know what I should do to it. I think it’s going to fall off in the next week or so. Here are some pictures right before my lights came on this morning. Thanks for the help!

Torches just pinch and the skeleton slowly splits, it wont grow new skeleton just use what's already there. They branch out then get thicker and split again. your torch looks fine imo!
Thanks for the info. I’m worried because that piece looks like it’s just dangling there and about to break off. I assume that means it would just float around the tank?
