Indo Torch Fat Head Tiger

Indo Torch Fat Head Tiger

Transform Your Tank with One of Reefkeeping's Most Coveted Torches

Looking for a torch coral that commands attention... The Indo Torch Fat Head Tiger is a standout even among premium Euphyllia variants. Its thick, club-tipped tentacles display bold, high-contrast striping that creates serious visual drama under reef lighting. This is not your everyday torch. The "Fat Head" designation refers to the distinctly oversized, swollen tentacle tips, while the "Tiger" pattern delivers rich banding that sets it apart from standard Indonesian imports. Collectors seek these out for good reason.

This coral has a slow, steady growth habit and a deeply satisfying presence in any saltwater aquarium: those flowing tentacles extend generously during the day and retract into a compact polyp head at night. It's a rewarding long-term centerpiece that grows in size and personality over time, and its sweeper tentacles mean it appreciates generous spacing from neighboring corals. Once settled and thriving, it's the kind of addition you'll build an entire reef tank layout around.
