I have been looking into a Euphyllia christata and was looking for any input in this coral as I can’t find much to online. Is it true they have very long sweepers?

They can. I have lots of Euphyllia and once in a blue moon, a long sweeper or two will emerge. Most coral have sweepers and may or may not extend them. Its the very reason it is recommended to keep Euphyllia away from other coral at least 3-4" away

Mine doesn’t. It will send one out every now and then but it’s only like 1” longer than the regular tentacles. They’re not really super strong either, most of the time they break off in my tanks flow or when my damsel cruises past.
