Aussie Gold Torch

I thought I would share this one a few years ago I got a large one head gold torch from Adam at Reef Godz. Fast forward today is some growth pictures of how well it has done on my tank. Honestly I thought it had two much flow so I put a rock to obstruct the flow. Interesting enough it as also spawned as I know have a few baby heads popping up near by.

As one can see the heads are a little small still but in 6 months in my tank they should be more visible.

Great success story. You must keep good parameters there. That torch is super happy [emoji106]

Thanks for the Compliment guys. I just am enjoying my tank and we will see how this continues to grow. For how much these run these days this grows like a weed for me. I can not even imagine what 100% captive raise would run as well. We will just let things grow until it really starts to damage the Red Planet about it then I will have to make some changes.
 
Very cool Richard. My indo purple and neon tips spawned late last yr/early this year and i thought i had about 20 babies at first and wen i started moving my rocks around, i found babies literally everywhere...not so babies anymore. Of course urs are triple the value of mine so congrats on eventually cashing in ; )
 
Very nice Richard. Is it a branching torch or wall torch? I'm curious about the spawning. Do all torches spawn like that or just certain kinds?

If I end up with more then 5 I will do a trade with you as I love the concept of 100 tank raised. we will see as they start to grow more for me where I end up with these as the tank is big and can easily be hiden.

Hello Mike, this was a branching torch. I have had branching hammers for years and no spawning on those. I am not sure how this is caused. Somethings just grow like weeds. I would rather have my SPS grow like weeds lol.
 
That’s super cool Richard! Well if you ever want to trade one for more sps I’m interested! ����

Also sorry for not getting back to you. Thank you for the kind message! Hope you and the family are doing well and you have a wonderful holiday and new year. ��
 
Richard nice to see huge colony of this specimen and not all fragged up. Love the gold sheen on this one wouldn't mind a frag of this when your tank becomes a field of gold! If you grow it they will come...

you are in line but it will be a minute or two. hopefully this will be something we can circulate in the long run of things.
