Aussie Gold Torches

[Coral reefer]

What if their successes were actually mildly stressful accidents that triggered the Torches to reproduce?

I think this is a very good question. Many examples in nature where mortal danger triggers reproduction.

Ohh. Ok, Sherlock

I'm not sure, nothing abnormal. 5ppm nitrate. Keeping chemistry as stable as I can. 35 PPT salinity

I was just kidding. It’s a valid and interesting theory.

I’m actually convinced my ”spawning” was a polyp bail out. I was moving it one day and shook it hard and it immediately bailed out. I spent hours fishing all the little polyps out of the tank so they wouldn’t sting my other corals.

Wow!

Can’t tell you exactly what I’ve done but mines has managed to stay alive for a year and a half but it grows incredibly slow. I bought it as a tiny fingernail sized nub (wouldn’t even call it a single head since it didn’t have any branch/base to it). My parameters aren’t super stable and they’ve fluctuated quite a bit since the tank was set up about a year and a half ago. First pic is the nub and second is a recent pic. No idea how many heads are under there since it doesn’t fully retract its polyps at night.
