Overview
The FireFly Joker Torch is a rare collector’s coral with explosive colour contrast and hypnotic movement. Its vibrant green tentacles glow intensely under actinic lighting, tipped with fire-like orange-yellow, and anchored by a striking purple base. This coral earns its “Joker” name by mixing mischief and majesty in perfect balance.
As a limited edition morph, it is highly sought after by advanced reefers and collectors looking for something genuinely unique to anchor their aquascape.
Care & Feeding
This Euphyllia variant flourishes in stable reef systems and benefits from targeted feeding with fine meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, reef roids, or enriched planktonic blends. While photosynthetic, supplemental feeding promotes fuller polyp extension and enhanced pigmentation.
Ensure ample spacing from other corals—its long sweeper tentacles are aggressive and can sting neighbours during nocturnal extension.
