The Branching Gold Cristata Torch is a compact but colorful Euphyllia that somewhat resembles a branching hammer. This torch grows branches that stay close together to form bunches of polyps. You can expect to receive 1+ head of this often hard to find Cristata Torch.
The Coral Farm frags are mounted to a fired ceramic plug or piece of rubble rock that can be mounted to your live rock with super glue gel or epoxy.

Cristata Torch coral is a great beginner coral and will sway back and forth to the currents in the aquarium. Torch Corals are a favorite of many reef keepers because of the sense of motion they bring to a reef tank. Cristata Torch corals do have sweeper tentacles that can extend but typically they retain a compact form. Cristata torch can tolerate a wide variety of tank conditions but enjoy medium lighting around 100-200 par and gentle to moderate random flow. Too much current could damage these corals so it's best if you find a location with good lighting and mild-intensity water movement patterns ...just like Goldilocks enjoyed her porridge - neither too hot or too cold.
