What’s the difference between and indo and Malaysian torch?

[bryanle87]

I recently acquired a torch imo looks like a hells fire but the seller said it’s a Malaysian. Regardless it’s was a super good deal and I love how it looks no complaints. Attached are under whites and blues

Supposedly just harder to get, so more exclusive.

But as far as looks wise. Can we tell them apart? Call me paranoid but what if a store accidentally mixes up the indo and the Malay and sells a Malay for indo and indo for Malay price?

Is that possible sure. Unless it’s a very specific color variant that Only comes from x place, probably not. Also take into account lighting and water chemistry effect on coral colors.

Got it. Okay. Thanks

Not sure if this helps, but these are my Malaysian pink tip torches

Yea I was told it’s the tip structure. But I think it’s the arms itself. Notice indo is more skinny, malay thicker, and Aussie thickest 🤷‍♂️ lol

Malaysians are brighter and thicker
I have the ASD, holy grail torch, and the Malaysian holy grail, torch, much brighter

That’s the torch filling itself with water. I don’t think that would be an indicator.

most of it is hype. Vendors make things up often to bring in more dollars.

As others have said hard to tell. Short and stubby vs long and curly… tough
