those were other names that came up when I did a search for candycane coral. I know that a "torch" is a Euphyllia but thats what that site said.

i consider it a lps. i would go with caulastrea curvata, imo. for care of it, lots of light, good water circulation, can be placed just about anywhere out in the open, top or bottom of the tank. looks like a nice frag to start off with!
