Its long, flowing tentacles provide a visual appeal that few other corals can match, creating a dynamic centerpiece as they sway in the current. This species is a classic in the reef-keeping hobby for good reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGold Torch Corals are distinguished by their vibrant coloration. They possess long, graceful tentacles that are typically a bright gold or deep yellow hue, often tipped with a contrasting color. These polyps extend from a branching calcified base, and as the colony grows, it forms an impressive structure. The continuous movement of its polyps makes it a very active-looking addition to a reef tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor best health, a Gold Torch Coral requires moderate lighting, with a PAR range between 75 and 150 being ideal. It prefers moderate, intermittent water flow, which allows its tentacles to sway gently without being damaged or retracted. Place the coral in the lower to middle section of the tank, ensuring it has plenty of room to expand. Torch corals are aggressive and can extend long sweeper tentacles; maintain at least 6-8 inches of space from other corals. While photosynthetic, they benefit from weekly target feeding of mysis shrimp or other meaty foods. Maintain stable water parameters, with calcium at 400-450 ppm, alkalinity at 8-12 dKH, and magnesium at 1250-1350 ppm. Slow drip acclimation is recommended when introducing it to your aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Gold Torch Coral is an excellent choice for hobbyists looking to add vibrant color and graceful movement to their aquarium. Its active presence and bright appearance make it a rewarding species to keep and a focal point in a well-maintained reef.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) item.
