Hey everybody

Had this torch, and it was fully extended for the whole time I had it. Then, about 2 days ago was deflated. After the lights turned off it closed up and I took this picture. Is the torch really unhealthy or is it splitting? All my nems/urchin/snails and other corals are fine. Nothing has changed with the water.

It doesn’t look super healthy, sometimes coral take time to thrive in a new environment, and sometimes they just don’t thrive.
 
Shouldn't there be a fleshy band around the top of the skeleton? Might be hungry.
 
Not healthy. No flesh around skeleton. It’s receded.
