Those torches are nice! Are they the gold?
Shoot i had them so long now i forget but im pretty sure the one on left with longer tentacles is an Indo torch and yes think the other was the gold...had them close to 3-4yrs now ..the one with longer tentacles is proving hard to keep without it killing everything it touches but thats nature lol

IMO get rid of those starfish ASAP as they are harmful to your coral.

They are asterinas and not ALL types are harmful to corals. There are dark and light ones, not sure which is bad. Manual removal is unfortunately the best way besides borrowing a harlequin that I know of.

I have to advise here...I had my indo next to my gold and once tentacles got longer on the indo which they ridiculously do it started killing off my gold...I didnt notice till one day went move some stuff and seen half my original gold was receded due to being stung off by indo i figured they be fine nextto each other...this was not the case

I'll keep a close eye and move the gold away some.
