Who Gives A Fish Forums

Still on the hunt here in San Antonio. Found a place claiming to have two, but they were more white-tentacled than I'd like. Looking for that gold variant, similar to a Todd's torch, you know, the one with the golden hue.

I just picked up a gold torch for $40 per head. I'm pretty sure it's the Indo species, to be honest it's not very gold at all.

Thanks finleyz, I was wondering why the difference in head size and I couldn't find any info out there explaining it, appreciate the insight.

There's a thin-stalked, tentacled one that's similar in size to a todd's torch, and prices range from $40 to $60. Then there's a thick-stalked one, about 1-1.5 inches in diameter, with tentacles that resemble a sebae anemone's - these typically go for $65 to $85 per head.

Are we looking at different species here, Indo or Aussie?

Grabbed one at a swap recently, pretty sure it's an Indo. The seller mentioned they got a new supplier in. Looked great under blues, but under my 14K spectrum, not so much. Paid $60 for multiple heads. Had an Aussie before, lost it when I tried to frag it. Getting another one in next week's shipment - $33 per head, but had to buy three.
