Torch Coral Premium: Mesmerizing Movement for Your Reef

Add stunning, flowing beauty to your marine aquarium with our premium Torch Corals. Watch their vibrant tentacles sway, bringing dynamic life to your underwater world.

Overview

The Torch Coral (*Euphyllia glabrescens*) is an iconic Large Polyp Stony (LPS) coral, celebrated for its long, luminous tentacles, each tipped with a contrasting color. These graceful polyps extend from a calcified base, creating a captivating display as they undulate gently in the current. Available in various brilliant hues, our Premium Torch Corals are selected for exceptional health and vibrant coloration, becoming an instant focal point in your established reef tank.

Care Level

This species is considered moderately easy to care for, suitable for aquarists with some experience. While generally hardy, Torch Corals are aggressive towards other corals due to potent sweeper tentacles, requiring careful placement. Ensure ample space to prevent stinging, though they often tolerate other *Euphyllia* species.

Tank Essentials

A minimum of 190 litres (50 gallons) is recommended for your Torch Coral to thrive. Maintain stable water parameters: pH 8.1-8.4, temperature 24-27°C, and moderate, indirect water flow that allows the polyps to sway gently. Provide moderate lighting (100-200 PAR) to support their photosynthetic needs for a healthy aquarium coral.

Diet

Primarily photosynthetic, Torch Corals derive most nutrition from their symbiotic zooxanthellae. Supplement their diet 1-3 times weekly with small meaty foods like mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, or specialized LPS coral foods for optimal growth and vitality.
