Thank you guys

Need to update your thread.
One of my favorites
Yes, I'll do it this week.

Wow... Can you give more info about your tank? Flow around the torches, lights, placement, water parameters? Anything in particular that you would say is a key to your success?
The Tank info:
260g Reef tank 75x31x27
38g Frag Tank
13g Fuge
68g Sump
Light: 6x RapidLed Coronas
Skimmer: Regal 300sss
Calcium Reactor SRO CR-5000
Reef Octopus ozone reactor
3x Tunze 6095 1x Tunze 6105
Waterblaster 10.000 return pump

The flow and light around Torches are medium

Water parameters
Ca 470
Mg 1350
Kh 7,0
PO4 0,01 ppm
NO3 5,0 ppm
1025

I really dunno the exact key, I just feed my fishes and do weekely 5 to 10% water change.

Just how you have them positioned on that rock is the coolest ever. Nice!

I had a torch. Got to 3 heads from one. Mostly died off. A baby head is now growing off the dead stocks.

Any advise for placement of these guys? I don't know if water flow was too little or too much or if the lights I had at the time were too weak.

dang some serious torches here!
I was gonna post my purple and green but with all these beauties i better always clean my glass to get some good shoots.

That big pile of torches from @ kaduozores is my reefing goal! Are they all from the same area like Aussie or indo? Any aggression toward each other?

I think they are Indo. There is no aggression between aussie and indo, they do well together.

Man I would love a Aussie gold torch! But the market price for them in the Bay Area, Cali is about $300-$350 per a head. Insane!!!
