Hello everyone! A few weeks back I purchased my first Torch coral, I just wanted to verify that it is healthy and receiving the correct amount of flow. I have attached a video below. The thing is much larger then when I bought it so surely its fully extended and doing alright just wanted to double check as I am new to corals.

It indeed looks healthy, I think it will do fine, I prefer a little more flow. @Rocks reef likes to blast his.
I have a hulk torch , wish I had a picture. That likes being blastedddd. Almost to the point of it being in front of the wave maker. If you move it away from that blast it’ll close and never open.

I get nervous if it gets to high, flesh tearing and all but as long as it’s random I guess it’s okay, but I’m to much of a wussy.

Beautiful rock bro
Trying to do the same and cover my rocks with torches

I am scared to mess up especially how I lost my 4 headed hell fire torch

Is that a banana torch can’t see it really well while I drive
