Overview
The Rasta Inferno Torch Coral is an extraordinary and rare Euphyllia variant, featuring deep black tentacles with blazing Rasta-colored tips in red, yellow, and green. This highly sought-after torch coral creates a hypnotic, flame-like effect as it sways gracefully in the current, making it one of the most unique and visually striking torches available.
Care & Feeding
To maintain its vivid coloration and long tentacle extension, the Rasta Inferno Torch thrives under moderate to high lighting. A moderate to strong water flow helps enhance its movement while preventing detritus buildup.
Though it primarily relies on photosynthesis, occasional feedings of mysis shrimp, rotifers, or specialized coral foods can enhance its vibrant colors and encourage faster growth. Keeping calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity levels stable is essential to support its skeletal development and overall health.
