Hello all. I was looking at a rock one day and saw something growing. It's right by a orange ricordea, so I thought maybe somehow it put a baby there. Now a couple of months later I can see that's its actually a baby torch coral! At some point, the 2 of my torches found love and made a little one. This is definitely a milestone. I can't believe spawning happened and that a baby made it.

A couple of pics to show they aren't side by side or even close to the baby.

(Forgive me for the dead corals in the tank. Red bug infestation got out of hand before I knew what was happening. All red bugs are dead now. Thanks, Dr. G's Coral dip! Dosed directly into tank w/ no I'll effects)

That's cool. I've never had any euphyllia spawn before.
