Hey R2R,

Just received two torch plugs from an online vendor and they continue to look like they are in pretty bad shape after 24hrs.

The one looks like there is no chance for recovery as the entire skeleton is showing on both heads, while the other has 1/3 of its tissue on one of the heads ripping up and it shed some white and brown stuff when i gently moved it earlier.

Is there anything that can be done at this point to help the situation out to try to save them? I currently have them in a well established QT frag tank with other euphelia that have been thriving over the last few months. Greatly appreciate your time in advance.

Tank Parameters
Salinity: 1.026
Temp: 78f
PH: 8.1
Ammonia/Nitrites/Nitrates: 0

I’ve had similar issues with two torches recently. I would love some thoughts on this as well
