Its flowing polyp form makes it best suited to a thoughtfully arranged reef layout.

This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, indirect and varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually when moving it into brighter conditions, and observe polyp extension as it settles into its chosen location.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Water movement should gently move the polyps without blasting them with a strong direct stream.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the coral time to acclimate after placement, and avoid frequent moves once it responds well.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. Torch corals are aggressive and have stinging potential, so keep nearby specimens beyond reach of extended tentacles.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed carefully if desired and avoid allowing food to accumulate around the coral.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes in lighting, flow, or water chemistry, and watch regularly for polyp response after any adjustment.

Plan for its reach, provide gentle movement, and keep conditions stable.
