Bought a new torch tonight and was wanting some opinions on placement. I have a hammer that I put the base horizontally and was wonder if I should do the same with the torch or have it stand vertically. I think I’m going to make that pillar /wall all types of euphyllia.

It's safer to keep torches in the sand bed , or if you want them on rock work , just make an area specifically for them, they are highly aggressive and inflate quiet large when happy.
 
I was under the impression you can keep any euphyllia together. I was going to keep that rock all euphyllia.
 
No, that's not true ,torches are the most aggressive , it's a 50/50 chance putting them next to other euphyllia.
Agree 100%. Torches will take out other euphyllia. It's the one I always seperated.
 
Thanks for the advise. I appreciate it.
 
My torch doesn’t mind flow but it will kill anything that it can touch. Space yours far enough from anything you are not willing to lose.
 
Only two euphyllia that can touch are the hammers and frogspawns. Torch no go although same family.
