About Green Torch Coral
The Green Torch coral is the classic Euphyllia glabrescens: long green tentacles with paler tips on branching stalks. It is the most affordable way into torch corals and looks its best in gentle, shifting flow. Remember that torches do not tolerate touching hammers or frogspawn, so plan its position before gluing it down.
