Hi everyone.

My purple/greentip has been struggling the last week to fully extend. Flow is spot on and not direct. All other torches/sps are thriving. Water pars are just fine.

It's got three heads but looks like it's splitting again. Used to open very big. Sweepers look almost like it's had a pellet dropped in it.
Any ideas? I have some seachem dip but not sure if it's worth dipping and it's just being angry.

^ This, mine always look unhappy before, during and for a short time after a split and then comes back to its full beautiful self.
 
Sometimes torches don't like being next to other torches. My rasta torch declined being in close proximity to indo and Malaysia torches.
