The Torch Coral (Euphyllia glabrescens) is one of the most beloved LPS corals in the hobby, known for its long, flowing tentacles and dramatic, flame‑like movement. Under blue lighting, its tips glow brilliantly, creating a hypnotic sway that instantly draws the eye and elevates any aquascape.
Signature Torch Movement: Long, elegant tentacles that ripple like underwater fire
Vibrant Coloration: Glowing tips and bold tentacle contrast that intensifies under actinic light
High Visual Impact: A true showpiece coral that adds motion, depth, and luxury to your reef
Collector Favorite: Available in stunning morphs like Gold, Dragon Soul, Indo, NY Knicks, and more
Lighting: Moderate to high for best color expression
Flow: Gentle to moderate — enough to sway, never enough to whip
Placement: Provide space; torches have long sweeper tentacles
Temperament: Semi‑aggressive, typical of Euphyllia species
