Happy/sad torch coral?

Well I have this torch for probably two months now. No tissue loss or any visible problem. Previously, I used to place it on sand bed (erected) and its tentacles used to be very long. But now, when I got it midway, its tentacles is kinda shorter than before.

Alongside, it got a HUGE flesh stem:

I have a frogspawn and a hammer at the same level. The frogspawn has grown significantly, the hammer is doing well (but probably the barnacles are disturbing it).

Does it looks like my torch is happy?

Looks good to me.

You will find torches and the like will stretch and retract depending on flow and light.

Thanks :D
