Have you ever seen a torch like a splatter hammer?

I came across a torch for sale and a portion of it is teal with blue tips and another portion is blue with teal tips.

I have never seen a torch like this before. Anyone have similar torches/seen similar torches?

Do you mean something like this?



jeez that thread is something... and yes but not quite. I was told it was not grafted but I guess who knows. It's less 50/50 and is more entangled throughout it. its a pretty pricey coral, but if it is natural, is super unique

Only the splice or grafted personally. I’ve seen “splatter” ones but they’re a break up in color not halves that mirror each other

How much was it for sale?
The one above went for $600 and a tongue lashing..

$400 free shipping. So not crazy expensive like some torches, but I just spent $400 on torches so... I guess as long as I like it, all that matters? lol

my main concern is that it will just revert to one color like splatter hammers tend to, or it is just 2 corals glued together lol

Yes. I wish the person that bought the coral was on here and would post the growth progress. I bet it just reverts to 2 separate torches, which is why I think he was selling it. If he really thought he had grafted the torch, then why not sit on it and let it multiply and sell the frags.
