Our torch coral had been doing some different responses lately. Pranksters ate all within normal range.
I did move a powered away from the coral to reduce flow on the 3 bottom heads. They were closing up half way through the day. But now are doing better.
The new response I'm getting it the testicles curling some. I don't know if it's normal.
It's been growing so fast. I'm not sure what is happening now.

Ok, next question. There are 3 heads that have been giving us trouble. I moved the powerheads to reduce flow. Which has helped but by mid day they are competently sucked in. And suggestions? The rest of the coral is doing amazing.

Beautiful coral.
I’m going through the exact same thing
I lowered mine a few inches and I believe the torch coral is just acclimating to the change of flowpattern/light. If it was overall unhappy dying the coral flesh would be much smaller and parts would start to close and or disappear revealing its white skeleton underneath. Your corals flesh is still very healthy around it’s base reaching for light, id say so far so good still.
