Thanks. Yeah its hard to see since the tentacles are constantly moving and I cant seem to get a pic when most of the yellow is showing.
I do like it though even though it has nasty sting. It really glows under actinics. This is the top down pic from the vendor showing a bit
more yellow. Its a pretty cool one whatever it is.

I think Theo15 posted some pics of his torches earlier in the thread. Check them out. They are gorgeous!

See if you can get a pic with less blues in it. Looks sort of like one of my green torchs

IMO that just looks like a healthy green torch. Nice coral though. I really like my green torch. It glows.

Actually I just recently moved tanks so it's a little stressed out right now.

This is a pic from a while back

Looks healthier in the older pic to me and spread out more. Nice coral though.

Well this torch has blossomed out well over 12 heads now. Its aggressive though. Will kill anything around it. Even takes off tentacles from the anemone. It has basically taken
out the other 3 torches I had next to it. I moved what was left of them.

Sure no problem , I'll even provide pics, essentially the name "holy grail" is a term used in the reefing community to describe a coral that is very rare extremely hard to get and of course there are different variations but they are all equally hard to get, these are 4 variations of the original "holy grail" torch

There are many "Holy grail" corals like this hammer for instance....

The two torch corals I have are the first and original holy grail torch

Would you happen to still have any holy Grail torch available or know anyone?

True “holy grail” soon.
