Green Torch Coral (Euphyllia glabrescens) is more common than its “Gold” counterpart, it is no less spectacular. It provides the same mesmerizing, fluid motion that Torch corals are famous for, but with a classic, neon-fluorescent glow. This coral is a cornerstone of the LPS reef hobby, prized for its long, flowing tentacles that create a lush, kinetic forest in the aquarium. High-quality specimens often feature deep forest-green bodies with contrasting tips, making them a high-impact addition to any mid-level rockwork.
Coloration: Vibrant neon green tentacles with teal tips
Size: 1–2 inch single head
Lighting: Moderate (prefers indirect, high-quality reef lighting to maintain pigment)
Water flow: Medium to High (turbulent, indirect flow is essential to keep the polyps oxygenated and debris-free)
Feeding: Benefits from target feeding of micro-plankton or mysis shrimp once or twice a week
Aggressiveness: Peaceful but requires ample space
Care Level: Moderate (requires stable alkalinity and calcium levels)
