All Torch's looking really bad other corals look good

Not sure what to even think what's going on never seen this before. I have a bunch of other LPS corals that look good but just torchs that look terrible, any ideas? Sps look fine also

First pic is a night shot(look at the filments coming out??)

Second is a pic from the day right before the night shot.

Check for pests. Try a dip and see what falls off.

No change in lighting? Flow?

When i changed to a more powerful powerhead my branching frog stay like that for a week.

My torch sometimes does this. Sometimes it is only 1 or 2 heads for a few days, other times the whole thing closes up. More times than not everything is open and looking normal. Not sure if mine is due to being homed by my two clowns.
