I have the green tip torch that has been in my reef tank for a month now . Since day 1 it has hasn’t opened fully extended like how a normal torch would do . It’s under 150 par and having indirect low flow . I have other torches next to it introduced around the same time maybe a week apart and they are fully extended.
All other corals are doing well.
I did notice the tentacles looks a little pale compared to when I first got it . Is 150 par to much light ?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Was it like that when you bought it? Could there be anything that is irritating it?
 
It definitely was opening more in the shop . It was dipped with Redsea coral dip before it entered my display.
