𧬠Overview
The Holy Grail Torch Coral is one of the most coveted LPS specimens in the reefing world β an icon of colour and motion. Its glowing golden tentacles dance hypnotically in the current, illuminating the tank with an ethereal radiance. This morph displays the perfect balance of intensity and elegance, with colours that remain vibrant under both white and actinic light.
Each polyp embodies pure treasure β a living flame that transforms your reef into a sanctuary of light and movement.
π½οΈ Care & Feeding
This coral is photosynthetic, deriving most of its energy from light, but occasional target feeding with meaty microfoods (Reef Roids, Coral Frenzy, or Mysis) encourages faster growth and fuller polyp extension.
Maintain stable alkalinity and nutrient levels β swings can dull its vivid yellow tones. Supplementing with amino acids and trace elements (Iron, Potassium, Manganese) helps maintain golden pigmentation.
