Can somebody help me identify this?
I was just doing my water change (albeit looking for a crab i hadn’t seen in a few months) when I noticed these two white patches on my torch coral. Can you guys help? Also are some of the tentacles supposed to be all crunched up? I’m new to this I apologise. One last thing, the torch is normally three times bigger than this I think I aggrevated it looking for the crab

Sorry form the video I can't tell what white spots I should be looking for do you have a picture/video with white light? Normally if your torch is having issues it'll close up you should see the skeleton. Yours look completely open and happy, It could be another tentacle growing or is it possible that it's substrate?

I'd leave it alone and monitor it for now.

It’s the two little spots that I zoom into right next to it’s mouth in the middle :)
 
Are your pumps turned off? if not you need more flow. Patches are normal. corals do not like to be touched
The pumps were turned off in the video, I have it placed just below my rfg it has a lot of movement when the pump is on
 
I had three different Euphyllia’s start to lose color for me. I adjusted my lighting and started to feed them more and they came back to full color.
