So I’m not super concerned as I have had the torch for months and his color is great and is always out doing torch things.
Just curious as to why his “mouth” is like so big and flat (the green one in the pic below). It kind of looks more like a Duncan (bought as a torch and otherwise looks like one) and i believe he has always kind of looked like this but his tentacles seem to be a bit stubbier than when I got him (he is in a decent flow area so prob why). Like comparing him to my Dragon Soul, there is a clear difference. Any thoughts?

edit: I realized a better way to prob ask my question is why don’t the tentacles on my green torch come all the way to the mouth like it does on all my other torches?

Could be direct flow. Be careful if it’s that. It will start gaping and die off over time
Don’t think it’s direct flow, most of its flow is from my return valves and my Nero 5 is in the opposite side of the tank but I’ll keep an eye on it, thanks!
