Thats a tough one, but it looks like it could be. For me, it would depend on the price.

What is the name it’s being sold as?

If you have an old pill bottle you can cut it to make a DIY filter lens like the clip on PolypLab filters.
With torches nowadays the street names are base on several different things that are hard to tell without a fairly clear image. For instance, if the amount of gold/orange in the tentacles in nearly all the way to the base it may be a “hellfire” whereas if the gold is only about half way its normally just called an Indo Gold.The mix in if the mouth area is green or not and those two examples change names again.....

I think it’d be nice for some of the notable collectors to get together and comprise a list with descriptions and images showing examples of each. Some don’t like the name game but it does help when you trying to be certain that a colony/frag you’re purchasing isn’t the same as what you may already have.

I’ve bought my fair share of torches over the years, if you wanna pm me the “street name” and price Id be happy to tell you what I’ve paid for that kind and what I usually see them going for.

If you're joking I didn't catch it...different colors are not other species most of the time, there is E. glabrescens, E. cristata and E. paraglabrescens. Most torch corals are the first though.

hmmmn ;)
