Maxx, are the skeletons still white on those? Sometimes these things get dyed over in Indonesia before getting shipped to the states. I don't think it's very common anymore, much more common with leather corals.

No these are not dyed. These are healthy, purple torch corals. My first thought was that these might be dyed, but closer examination showed this was their natural appearance.

Beautiful corals that everyone has! How about a bit of information on how you keep them?

What kind of lighting do they require? Can someone use PC's to keep them healthy?

What kind of current suits them best?

How far from other corals should they be placed so they don't sting them? What kind of corals are compatable with them?

How do you feed them or do they get all their nutrients strictly from photosynthesis?

What do you look for in a healthy coral? How fast do they grow?
