This is the third day of having this torch, my first time trying it out and so far it’s not fully extending its tentacles? Does it like high flow or high light or low?

Hi,
Moderate indirect flow and not high intensity put it mid or low in the tank.
 
Give it some time to acclimate, Moderate indirect flow and moderate lighting is good. what are your parameters?
 
Nevermind it’s been pretty puffy for the past couple of days , it doesn’t get a crazy amount of flow but just enough for it to sway , I’ve also fed it phyto twice.

Looks good to me!

I don’t get much of a feeding response from torches with phyto, they benefit more from meaty based foods like mysis, try giving that a try 1-2x a week
