I’m usually on point with the ID of a lot of torches. But this one I’m not sure. I have an idea what I think it is. But not certain. It’s an Aussie for sure, and has only been in my tank a bout 2-3 hours as of time of the pics. Any help would be appreciated

It looks like a NY Knicks torch (green mouth, gold ‘striped’ Tentacles, dark blue tips) but it looks like an Aussie.
 
It’s 100% Aussie, it’s a holy grail after further investigation lol.
I’ve heard it called a holy grail actually lol but IMO HG’s need yellows and greens. Reminds me of a Knicks more than a HG.

I guess holy grail for Indo is yellow/green and for Aussie is a ultimate Knicks.

I’ll give it a month in my tank and I guarantee it will color up much better.
