INDO BLUE TIP TORCH CORAL (PER HEAD)

The Indo Blue Tip Torch Coral (Euphyllia glabrescens) is a high-end variant of the beloved Torch Coral, originating from Indonesia and prized for its dramatic color contrast. Its long, tentacle-like polyps range in color from deep bronze and neon green to gold, each ending in a bold, electric blue tip that glows intensely under actinic and blue reef lighting.

Like all Torch Corals, it features a branching skeleton and long, flowing tentacles that give it a dramatic, torch-like appearance and add hypnotic movement to reef aquariums. This particular variant is especially desirable for collectors seeking bold coloration and dynamic motion.

It thrives in moderate to high lighting with moderate, indirect flow that keeps its delicate tissue swaying but not stressed. While it is photosynthetic, regular feeding with mysis shrimp, reef roids, or other meaty microfoods can enhance growth, coloration, and polyp extension.

Torch Corals are aggressive and can extend long sweeper tentacles capable of stinging neighboring corals. Proper placement with ample clearance is essential, especially with high-value or delicate tankmates. Due to its beauty and sensitivity, this coral is best suited for intermediate to advanced reefkeepers.
