The tentacles end in round or slightly tapered tips, and the coloration varies between green, gold, yellow, purple, and several combinations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs it grows, the Torch Coral forms new coral heads at the ends of its branching calcareous skeleton. Its care requirements are similar to Hammer and Frogspawn corals, but it is often more aggressive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCharacteristics\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Branching LPS coral\u003cbr\u003e• Long tentacles that move in the current\u003cbr\u003e• Forms new distinct coral heads as it grows\u003cbr\u003e• Available in various vibrant color variations\u003cbr\u003e• Can grow long sweeping tentacles and damage nearby corals\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low–moderate, about 50–150 PAR.
