"Our Lord! Bestow on us from our spouses and our offspring the comfort of our eyes, and make us leaders of the Muttaqun (the pious)." -(Surah Al-Furqan, verse 74)
Saltwater Aquarium 101 - Torch Coral
Name given based on the round shape of the tip of its tentacles. When it sways with the flow, looks like Medusa's hair, yikes. They breed by growing new branches/heads. Beware not to put them near other types of corals because they use nematocyst to sting as a defend mechanism. If the torch coral do not open or those tentacles do not extend, that's an indicator that it is stress. Perhaps you'll need to check the water parameter or if there's any fish bothering/nipping on them.
