The Torch Coral, known for its long, flowing tentacles that resemble the flickering flames of a torch, is a striking and popular choice for reef tanks. This species features vibrant colors ranging from greens and yellows to purples and oranges, making it a standout in any aquarium. However, it’s important to note that the Torch Coral can be somewhat aggressive, so be sure to place it away from other corals to prevent stinging and potential harm to neighboring species.

Torch Corals thrive under low to moderate lighting, ideally with full spectrum lighting to enhance their colors and promote healthy growth. They also enjoy medium water flow, which helps to keep their tentacles fully extended and healthy. When it comes to feeding, they benefit from regular feedings of plankton or coral-specific foods, although they also receive nutrition through photosynthesis from their symbiotic relationship with zooxanthellae, which is typically sufficient on its own.

With proper care and placement, Torch Corals can grow quite large, adding movement and a unique texture to your reef setup. They're a captivating coral to observe, with their soft, swaying tentacles making them a beautiful, dynamic addition to any aquarium.

Tip: Be cautious about their placement near other corals, as their long, stinging tentacles can damage neighboring species if they come into contact.
