Does anyone have daylight pictures of their gold torch or hammer? All I see online are what seem to be blue pics that are using a filter. Are these really gold? I am very skeptical of TRUE gold or yellow colored corals these days. Yellow does exist, but in general a lot of "yellow" these days is really green in normal/daylight lighting.

I don't mean to cause a blue/white light photo debate, but I'm just looking for pics because I'm thinking of adding these to my tank. But I won't pay the price if it's green under something like a 14000K color spectrum.

See the coral in person if you can. When I went to RAP some of the gold torches were not as nice as others so they can vary quite a bit. Also some of what they called a yellow tipped torch looked more green to me ;)

Yeah this is great advice. Can't beat seeing it in person. There are too many factors that go into what a coral looks like in a picture.
