🧬 Overview
The Euphyllia “Banana Bronze Torch” is a collector-grade morph prized for its warm colour spectrum and strong metallic undertones. The combination of bright banana yellow and deep bronze gives this torch a rare, almost molten-lava aesthetic — glowing, rich, and highly eye-catching.

Each tentacle flows with thick, fleshy movement, catching light at different angles and revealing layers of gold, amber, and bronze. In torch-dominated reefs, this morph stands out immediately due to its warmth and depth.

Each WYSIWYG head is hand-selected for:
• Intense banana-yellow saturation
• Strong bronze core expression
• Thick, full tentacle structure
• Excellent tissue health and inflation
• Solid, well-formed base skeleton
• Long-term colour stability under LED lighting

A torch that combines power, warmth, and premium visual impact.

🍽️ Care & Feeding
Like most torches, Banana Bronze thrives mainly on photosynthesis but benefits from occasional feeding to enhance growth and colour depth.

Feed 1× weekly with:
• Finely chopped mysis or krill
• Reef roids, coral blends, or microplankton
• Target-feed gently with flow paused for optimal capture

📈 Optimal Parameters

📍 Placement
Allow 10–15 cm clearance from other corals — torches can extend long sweeper tentacles, especially at night.
Ensure gentle, pulsing flow to maintain natural movement and prevent tissue stress.
Avoid direct laminar flow or sharp rock contact.
