not sure if this is a frogspawn or a torch, but I absolutely love the color!! neon green with white tips, really cool. I am hoping my clown will start hosting in it, he has already shown a little bit of preliminary interest :)

Yep. Torch for sure. Beautiful color morph. :) Be careful. They stretch out more than any other euphyllia as far as stinging other corals.

just a helpful tip (if it helps) If you find it getting agressive you can throw it on the far side of your tank with the water flow blowing the sweepers into the side glass of the tank instead of onto your other coral-that always worked for me when i used to keep those corals back when

oh they are vicious. I can't wait to get my 90 gal up so I can get my orange tipped torch out of the 30. He likes to "reach out and touch" too many of his fellow corals. Let me tell you, you will be amazed at how far they can stretch those tentacles.

i currently have it on the far side of my tank and sort of pointing towards the glass. I'm only going to let it get big enough for my clown to host in, then probably keep it fragged so it doesnt get out of control. i hope it doesn't get toooo viscious because it's too cool to get rid of :D
The only coral other than zoas that I'd think it's close enough to reach out to would be a piece of acan... supposing it stung part of the acan, would the whole coral be likely to die?
