I’d like to ask for some advice and experience on how to care for bleached torch corals and help them recover from the stress and damage caused by recent harvesting. Thank you in advance for your suggestions!

I’m currently using Red Sea’s ABCD supplements but feel that the effectiveness is quite low. I’m considering switching to the Coral System 1-2-3-4. My KH is being maintained at around 9.5–10 dKH.

Wow your tank looks awesome under those blue lights! That big soft coral or maybe an anemone with the glowing tips is really cool. I’m still figuring out coral recovery myself but maybe lowering the PAR a bit and just keeping stable water could help. Have you tried target feeding your corals when they’re stressed?

I have over 100 heads of torch coral, and around 25–30 of them are showing mild bleaching, with a pale whitish-purple coloration. I haven’t taken photos of the affected ones yet, but overall they still look relatively healthy. However, I’d like to help them regain their color.
