I could use some help obviously I spent about 2 hours doing this definitely needs some work. Not all my pictures either lol! I haven’t labeled them yet or formatted it very well but what am I missing here I know there’s a lot of variants but, the more the merrier.

That's a great start! All beautiful and more varieties than I ever knew! Bottom, far-right... WANT!!!
Yeah that bottom right is absolutely insane. I’m working now on putting the names of these so far on there. I know there’s a ton more but there’s so much interpretation and confusion when it comes to torches so I figured why not start making a big bank of them.

What is the coral on the 2nd row, 2nd in from the right? That thing is incredible.

I thought it was a black widow nem at first!
This? That’s a Indo gold torch. Indo gold should be like a 24k but indo. Gold all the way down. Not sure what tip color but lol

This is the one I was talking about. Now that I look at it more, the tentacles kinda look like a new york knicks torch, but I don't recall seeing the base bluish/purple how it is in that photo.

I think that’s an Aussie cotton candy. It has bicolored tips like the Indo cotton candy except it’s fat tentacles. Came from Aussie

If it’s got blue and pink tips it’s a cotton candy Aussie. Gotta have that bi-colored tips going. If not then it’s some other kinda Aussie. Send some more pics when it opens up!

+ 1 on the far right but add the second row from the bottom, third to the right... Orange and purple are complementary colors.

@PBnJOnWheat did you ever get a chance to label these and identify them?

I’m trying to learn about all the different types of torches out there and something like this would be insanely helpful!

Thanks.

Yes I’m trying but even now I’m seeing some crazy stuff I haven’t seen before. I’ll try and sit down and work on it again. I new starting out this would be extremely helpful, as well as further down the road the slightest differences can make something a lot more expensive.
