I got just a little more than that. I want all the tentacles to be active. Not crazy, but not motionless.
 
Definately not too much flow...
My torches get a lot of flow and grow like crazy.
Here is a video of a blue tip torch I also got from Cherry Corals. Started out as a single head, now it has 10-12 heads.

Do u feed ur torches..also what are ur tank parameters

I don't feed them directly but they catch bits of food when i feed the tank/fish.
I do dose phyto and a few liquid corals foods and aminos. (AB+, AcroPower, 'koralKolor)
1.026
ALK 7.6
CA 425
MG 1400
low N/P (both under 1ppm)
pH 8.1
 
I live close to Cherry Corals. I can just drive and pick up whatever I buy. Good guys, very healthy corals. Everything I have ever hog from them has been great. Hope all goes well for you. Looks nice.

i got a blue tip from them about 6 months ago and it’s not looking good…are u doseing all for reef for alk?
 
Good luck w torch. Looks healthy. Would expect less from CC. Bump up the flow. My torches sit on the return side off the front glass opposite a Nero 5 that pulses up to 75% flow. 2k+gph and they enjoy it.
 
yep like others said bump up the flow a little bit but not as much as leftyreef for right now as lefty has a very well conditioned torch that is accustomed to that flow

He’s got that Fabio Flo

LOL all my torches get the fabio flow and grow like crazy for me.
Here is a new indo gold that I just added. Haven't even glued it down yet.
You can see in the video that it wobbles from the flow but has already spit out a new head in that spot, so I guess it's happy. It put out some really long tentacles to get into the even higher flow above it.
 
Lol lefty cant mess with those results, I do have to er on the safe side just for the sake of others tanks. Dang how u get that extension so well in such high flow, u must be a wizard
