Fiji Torch Coral fully extended or not?

[MaverickReef]

Hello all, I have just added what my LFS told me was a Fiji Torch Coral. I am not sure if this specific type of torch coral is just smaller or doesn't extend more than this. I am new to keeping corals, but I have 3 Zoanthid colonies in my tank and GSP that are thriving. My tank is an Evo 13.5 gallon with AI prime for lighting. Since this picture the tentacles have came out a little more, but for the most part this coral has never looked like all of the other torch corals I've seen on this site (long flowing tentacles). When I purchased this frag at the LFS, it didn't have long tentacles then either.

All of my parameters are stable and in the correct ranges, my other corals have great colorations and growth.

Could this be a different type of torch coral? Do I need to add more flow or move it into stronger lighting? Any advice would be awesome, thanks!

heres something to compare to. there are a few "torch" species.

http://www.coralsoftheworld.org/spe..._factsheet_summary/euphyllia-paraglabrescens/ this might be yours, if it stays short

also another shorter tentacle one: http://www.coralsoftheworld.org/species_factsheets/species_factsheet_summary/euphyllia-cristata/

Then the "classic" torch:

Corals of the World

as for care in your tank, most all euphyllia like moderate indirect current/flow. so as long as its not being directly blasted with flow it should be ok. Lighting is also low-moderate, so in a small tank like yours with an AI Prime, i feel you'll be ok anywhere on the bottom-middle of your tank. hope this helps

It looks very similar to the euphyllia cristata, thanks for your help!

Its a short tentacle torch.
It wont extend like those pictures you see of other torches.
Those have not been readily avail because of the indio ban.
