Torch coral not really opening

[Unstablereef]

Hey guys im new here i just wanna know if my torch coral is okay. I bought it like a week ago. When it arrive i dip it then put it in the tank. It opened up really nicely. After few days i fed it mysis shrimp just a tiny piece. Then the next morning it did not open up like it used to be. Now its more chunky looking. Is this normal?

Any pictures? Those would help some with seeing how it’s doing! It could be pooping or potentially splitting heads!

Is it normal that the mouth is big when splitting?

 

[Unstablereef]

I can see the mouth like triangular shape..idk if this is normal

It looks great in those pics! Yeah the mouth can grow in many shapes I wouldn’t be concerned! Those pics look like a good healthy torch IMO! I wouldn’t be worried at all

Yes, significant tissue recession. Parameters and other information needed to support a diagnosis and treatment strategy

Your rockwork looks a little too clean. Like devoid of any algae or sessile inverts. May I ask how old has your tank been set up?
