Had this green torch for more than a month now. Looks pretty healthy but it just won't extend. Most of the polyp just keeps pointing up because of the short polyps. It's getting sufficient flow. Is there a short polyp version of torches? Or am I doing something wrong? Every other coral is doing good. The 2 torch base aren't touching btw. Can I also get an ID on what the exact name of this torch is?
 
It looks fine. What par is it in? Perhaps a tad to much light is preventing full extension.

Same result when I moved it in the sand bed 2 weeks ago. It's currently getting around 165 par. The brown torch beside it is getting the same amount of par but is extending a lot better.

Perhaps that's just it's style. My green torch extends huge but the nicks and Malaysia gold stay shorter and thicker.
