A genuine NY Knicks develops rich golden tentacles alongside darker purple tones and brightly contrasting tips, creating an unmistakable look when fully extended under blue-spectrum reef lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe NY Knicks name has become widely used in the coral trade, including for Torches that only loosely resemble the original morph. This specimen is sold as a \u003cstrong\u003etrue NY Knicks\u003c\/strong\u003e, making the established lineage and characteristic colour combination an important part of what distinguishes it from more generic gold and purple Torches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eEuphyllia glabrescens\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePAR:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100?200\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlow:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate.

Stable alkalinity, calcium and magnesium, moderate lighting and varied flow provide excellent conditions for full extension, strong growth and the contrasting colouration for which the NY Knicks morph is prized.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Happy Reef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53627170783568,"sku":"THRC-0040","price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.thehappyreef.com\/products\/ny-knicks-torch-true-98","provider":"The Happy Reef","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
