The Dragon Tamer Torch is one of the most sought-after Euphyllia variants in the hobby — a cultivated designer morph prized for its dramatic, sweeping tentacles and the rich, multi-tonal coloration that makes it instantly identifiable in any reef tank. With 8–11 fully developed heads, this is not a frag or a starter piece — it's a mature, thriving colony ready to become the focal point of your saltwater aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTorch corals are large polyp stony (LPS) corals with generous, flowing movement that adds mesmerizing life to any marine aquarium. This colony will continue to grow and bud new heads over time, rewarding patient aquarists with an ever-expanding display. While torches have a reputation for being semi-aggressive — extending sweeper tentacles at night — thoughtful placement gives them plenty of space to thrive without conflict, making them a deeply satisfying long-term addition to any mature reef system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQUICK STATS \u0026amp; CARE GUIDE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dragon Tamer Torch Coral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8–11 heads (mature colony)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intermediate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive (produces sweeper tentacles; maintain 6+ inch clearance from neighbors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Photosynthetic via zooxanthellae; benefits from target feeding meaty foods (mysis, Reef Roids, or broadcast feeding 1–2x weekly)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e With caution — keep away from neighboring corals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Temp 76–79°F | Salinity 1.025–1.026 | pH 8.1–8.3 | dKH 8–11 | Calc 380–450 ppm | Mag 1250–1350 ppm | Moderate flow | Moderate lighting (PAR 50–150)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHY BUY FROM THE CORAL BOUTIQUE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery specimen at The Coral Boutique is ethically sourced, fully quarantined, and conditioned in our Miami facility — this Dragon Tamer colony is fully acclimated, actively feeding, and displaying strong polyp extension before it ever ships to your door.
