DBTC - Dragon soul torch

Frag Swap Coordinator
BOD
Stealing some of @jhuynh’s rules for this DBTC.
  1. Must have been a supporting active BAR member for 6 months (180 days)
  2. At least two frags of equal or greater size must be offered before doing what you wish with everything after that
  3. Corollary to the above: if someone sells a frag before completing their links in the chain, I will shut this one down
  4. Must have an established tank journal with demonstrated success keeping LPS
  5. If something happens to mine, I’ll go next in line for a replacement
  6. This will not be first come, first served. Priority is given to people who have either started or completed at least 5 DBTCs/DBTC links; BARcode is to let me know you're interested.

EDIT: Updating with a better picture of the colony under actinics with a nifty new lens kit.

I’m interested, but this is a real gem and I am 100% ok with it going to someone else, completely at Josh’s discretion. I don’t update my journal very often so if that disqualifies me, I understand. My tank is doing great, maybe too great since I have corals over-growing. Haven’t had any tank crashes, this tank has been up for several years, but occasionally have lost corals, usually for unknown reasons. I have a bunch of LPS/euphyllia growing very well too, which I’ve been having to frag to make room, but no torches right now.

What are the zoanthids at the base of the torch in the pic?
Right side are eagle eyes. Left side I have no idea; looks like eagle eyes but more of a forest green.

damn. did I spark a high end dbtc movement?

Definitely stole your rules. :) I've been meaning to frag this one for a while but the heads took forever for the flesh to fully separate.

Although, touching on that: the first week or two I was in the club I saw the Kensington gold torch, and I remember thinking how cool and generous it was that someone would just give a high-end piece like that into the club for propagation. So I figure turnabout's fair play, and I'm (ever, ever so slowly) trying to follow through by giving a piece of everything I get into the club.
