I have a five headed torch, unfortunately recently I damaged the tissue while cleaning and I have lost two of the heads. My question is what I should do, the other three heads seem fine, should I leave it be or try to remove the dead heads? I do not own a saw and have never propagated coral before.

As long as you aren’t seeing a bacteria infection I would leave it be. The torch is stressed as it is, give it time to heal itself. A pic would help though in the diagnosis.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
