Gold torch coral

Heres a pic of one of my oldest corals. Gold torch coral. Started with one head and now have 3-4 heads and the corals as big as my head!

Welcome! Beautiful!! How large was it when you got it, and how long have you had it? Is it indo? My Aussie gold seems to have fatter tentacles, but pictures are hard to tell.

IDK if it is aussie or not. I got it from local hobbyst. It was literally just one small tiny little head. It took forever to split but when it did, it split into 3 heads. Then took forever to actually branch off from each other. I had this one for about 3 years now. I guess it's not too big considering 3 years but it looks huge to me compared to what I started with. It's even bigger looking in person than the pic.

Aussies are known to often be slow growers, and maybe a little bit more sensitive than the average torch. I think you’ve done great. It’s awesome.
