gbta

i just picked up a gbta and upon closer inspection, i have some questions. the tentacles, mouth and general apperance is good. inide of the tentacles however are golden brown squiggly lines and the tentacles appear like they have "kinks" in them (sorta like a tube that was bent but then straightend) i have never observed this before anywhere and i was wondering if anyone here may have some insight. thanks.
 
at this point i think it is just a mutation suffering from some genetic defect. some of the tentacles appear to have one base split into two healthy whole ends. here are some pics.

please observe the massive tentacle towards the center and others that appear to bend at 90 degrees at the tip. in other words, the tip do not follow the line of the tentacle. could it have been sucked into a powerhead at one point? it looks like the gold lines inside the actual tentacles did not get captured. sorry.
 
i have seen very similar pic before, i wouldn't worry about, their tentacles come in all shapes and sizes.
