Is this torch worth it?

[Fishbro]

Hey everyone so tomorrow I’m probably going to pick up a Torch from someone and he’s selling it for $40. He’s calling it an Aussie Black Torch but I don’t even know if that’s a thing. I have some pictures but is it worth $40? I really like it but I don’t know if I’m getting ripped off or something. He gave me pictures of it in purple and blue light.

Just got the same coral a few weeks ago at a petco of all places. They had no idea how much it costs, So I got it for 20$. lol

How about pics in white light? I'm guessing its a normal purple tentacle, white tip torch. Run of the mill everyday torch.

Single head for 40$, I would say thats a decent price with the current euphyllia craze.

Yes ! I would say it is worth it and more , I sell frog spawn for $30 a head , torches are more expensive

God I remember when LFS's couldn't give euphyllia away. My first torch was 5$ for 4 heads, just a few(ok maybe 10 lol) years ago!

Ok I think I’ll probably buy it he said it’s black with blue tips and it looks like it here’s another picture of it next to a hammer.

I’ve got a similar torch. I’ll just say it’s hard to see under blues. And under whites it’s also dark. In my FTS, I can’t even see it. It’s also massive and takes up a lot of real estate. Trying to get rid of mine.

in my FTS it’s on the right next to the Monti. Hard to see.

That is seriously awesome I wish!!

Never realized there was black hammers too.

OP, the seller is lying to you with lighting. Ask for a pic in white light.

Alright I will.

These are the pictures he sent to me just now in “white light” but it really doesn’t look white.

 

[Fishbro]

He just sent me repeat pictures that he already sent

Those most certainly are not white pics. Just look at the purple on the glass. LOL

 

[homer1475]

for 40$ I would buy it, but be aware, it probably won't be the color hes representing.

Well now I’m really debating this purchase I could use $40 to get some other corals. He is now saying you’ll see it in person and he won’t send me any whites of it.

If he won't send you any white pics, I would pass. He knows he's being decpetive, thats why he won't send white pics.

Here’s mine under whites

 

[ScottR]

I find them boring to be honest

 

[homer1475]

Whites Scott? Your rock is blue then.

Sorry to EDIT:
I just looked at the pic again, must just be the way the forum blows it up. If you click the picture, it looks normal. lol
