    Went my my lfs yesterday and I just couldn't resist. Not sure where I want to place it yet, so it's just going to chill in the middle for a bit.

    Thanks! I ordered a second ph (Koralia 3) which should be here next week. So, I'm going to play around with my flow a bit and I'll probably pick a permanent place then. It's a bit close to my softie right now so I don't want to leave it there, it was just a very convenient place to let it de-stress.

    Nice torch, looks exactly like mine. The nice thing about these is their tentacles aren't 5 miles long and you can actually put stuff relatively close to them. I had 8-10 heads and a day after feeding it swelled up larger than a grapefruit, my buddy has a torch with a single head that's almost the same size!! I just cut off 3 heads and traded it to my LFS for a clam . . . the clam is pretty cool, but I kinda miss that big beautiful torch colony swaying around.
