Aussie Fathead Nuclear Tipped Torch

About this coral

Aussie Fathead Nuclear Tipped Torch is a named torch-coral offering in the large-polyp stony coral group. The shop name identifies a variety, but does not establish a precise scientific species or document its particular color traits. Torch corals are kept for their extended, moving tentacles and can add motion to a reef aquarium. The guidance below is general for torch corals, not a care sheet verified specifically for this named variety.

Features:

• Provide moderate lighting and medium water flow, consistent with the available care guidance for Euphyllia corals. Flow should move the tentacles gently rather than keeping them forcefully pressed in one direction.
• Choose a stable placement where the coral can extend its fleshy polyps without repeatedly contacting nearby animals.
• Torch corals have stinging tentacles and need appropriate separation from neighboring corals; allow room for contact and reach as they extend.
• As a photosynthetic coral, it receives nutrition from symbiotic algae. Some specimens may also accept small meaty foods, but feeding response can vary and food should not be forced.

Specifications:

• Coral group: Torch coral; large-polyp stony coral. Exact species is not established by the shop name.
• Care guidance: General torch-coral guidance; individual response may vary.
• Lighting: Moderate.
• Water flow: Medium; aim for gentle tentacle movement.
