Inferno Torch Euphyllia Torch Coral is a Euphyllia torch coral with flowing torch-style polyps. This WYSIWYG Euphyllia LPS coral brings the distinctive movement of a torch coral to a reef aquarium. Its flowing polyps make it best suited to a thoughtfully spaced location with appropriate indirect water movement.
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 introducing it to brighter conditions, then observe polyp extension and overall response before making further changes.
Flow
Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Water movement should keep the polyps moving gently without blasting the coral with a strong direct stream.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give it time to acclimate after placement, and adjust its position only if its response indicates the need.
Temperament
Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. Torch corals have stinging potential and can be aggressive, so avoid placing it where extended polyps can contact other corals.
Feeding
Feeding is optional. Occasional meaty foods may be offered, using a gentle approach that does not expose the coral to forceful flow.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions, especially salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Observe polyp extension, placement response, and nearby coral spacing regularly so adjustments can be made gradually.
Provide room, indirect flow, and stable conditions for ongoing care.
