Torch lost all its tentacles. Could they regrow?

[cleanbuttpotatoe]

Hello,

I have been looking for articles on my scenario but I can't really find anything similar... I accidentally increased the lights too fast and burned my corals. I have decreased lights by a lot. This is what my torches look like, there is no tentacles left on these but there is still flesh, specially in the purple one. Could they regrow?

Note: please note that the one who has skeleton showing has been showing it like that for almost a year.

Can’t say I’ve seen that before but if there’s stil flesh it has a chance of regrowing

Same thing happened to a bubble tip anemone I had. All of its tentacles vanished, a year of wanting and it never got better, slowly its heath declined. I never could find anything on it.

It seems like it still has some tissue left. Make sure water parameters are met and it should regrow them but it is going to take a while. Do you have other euphyllia in the tank? Or other corals?

yes, but you will have to make sure lights, params, and nutrients are all ideal and that the coral isnt being attacked or stressed

yes, some of my acropolis bleached but not all of them. I also have another torch that does have tentacles, I have zoas that are recovering and a meteor that lost flesh but is now recovering too

I would just ride it out, eventually it’ll grow more heads and recover the tissue.
it also helps if you add first defense by dr tims to help the coral heal

Curious if your hammers made it. I'm in the same boat right now.

Just curious what results everyone had because I am going through the same problem except my torch is splitting into 3 heads and one of the three heads looks like the first picture with no tentacles.
