    I traded one of my pink green tipped frogspawn (about 5" high by 5" wide) for this georgious metallic torch! I got 50% off this guy because of my trade in. Just the head of this coral (the flesh around the skeleton to the tips of the polyps) are about 4-5 inches. That doesn't include the other 3" of skeleton. I think I got a sweet deal! Especially since I had 2 of the pink green tipped frogspawns. I have seen pictures of these metallic torches before and I have seen a lot of them with pink or tan colored tips, but mine is like almost white. Very pretty! I love it!!!!! A couple of the polyps got sucked into the intake tube behind it and have some damage but I think it will be ok. Poor thing. I have since moved it forward!

    Yea, when I walked into the LFS and saw it, I was blown away because I wasn't expecting it be that big or that pretty. I just brought my frogspawn in without seeing the coral first, hoping that it was going to be a good deal! I think I scared with this one :p
