Did i kill my Torch Coral??
 

Hello all!
My very first post will be of me begging for help lol.

Ok, here's the back story...
My LFS got in some nice "green" frogspawn and torch frags on a Saturday. I put one of them on hold that night and decided to buy it the next morning. I normally would've waited a few days but torches go fast here and I've been waiting a while :sad: ...I didn't get to see the coral open before I bought it.
Something came up and I had to rush the acclimation process, I think I stressed it out ...I'm really worried that I will be stuck with a bleached out looking torch instead of the nice "green" one that I wanted.

Pic 1 is at early morning (looks like a little bit of green color at the base)
Pic 2 is full extention

PS I have a Hammer Coral sitting mid tank and it it doing amazing. It's been thriving in the tank for about 4 months.

Thanks for your help!!

I think it'll be fine, it might not have had a good first day, but it looks fine. Give it a bit of food and that should help it out.

...it's been almost a week. I'll try to do some direct feeding though. I'm happy that it is still opening up all the way.

Thanks for your help!

What lights do you have?

It looks good to me definitely not dead, some target feeding will help for sure.

I have 3ft High Output T5s (1 actinic and 1 10,000k). Like I said, my Hammer is doing great. I was just told that this was a "green" torch. It looked metallic green all closed up but open it is a washed out color

I think its just the light. My hammers are green when they are closed up but its washed out when they are open. Same case :P

Hmmm... The HOT5s have been doing well with all my other corals. Here's my hammer (nice pink w/ neon tips)...

Depressed because I really wanted a nice green torch, and then I was gonna look for a nice purple one too. ...didn't want a washed out "bleached" looking torch lol

Looks great to me. Very healthy.

Thanks for all the input everyone! I was afraid that I killed it lol.
