Red acans Mushrooms, orange or red, or blue ones.. theres a billion colors. Cyphastria comes in orange/blue. Zoa's come in every color under the sun. Neon orange plate coral Red favias Leptoseris is a nice yellow. 1 Quote Link to comment

Lizbeth90 Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 I think I’m going to rearrange my torches. I also bought an elegance and it’s HUGE I did not expect it to be so large. It’s a beautiful piece but I cant find space for it other than the middle. Can I move it with the torches and hammer? Or will they sting each other? Anyway as you can tell by the pic everything looks greeenish lol Quote Link to comment

I think your elegance looks great where it is. I don’t think you can put it with the euphilias since it’s a different type of coral but maybe others can confirm. I did read that they are very aggressive, and do best when placed on the sandbed, but I don’t have any experience with them myself. I would go for some orange corals to bring in some other colors - an orange plate, orange mushrooms, an orange Lepto maybe. 1 Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Elegance grows very large and torches have long sweepers. Torches can't be kept close to anything as they sting. For reds and oranges there are plenty of options. Blastos, acan, chalice, ricordeas Quote Link to comment
banasophia Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Oh yeah, and ultra rock flower anemones can have some gorgeous bright colors as well. Quote Link to comment
