Frogspawn vs Torch vs Hammer

[sigmachris]

I am in the market for a frag of Torch coral. When looking at LFS I think they are improperly labeled sometimes. Can someone please explain the differences between FS, Torch, and Hammer? I'm pretty sure hammer as the crecent moon tips, but what about FS and Torch?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Chris
P.S. the torch won't go in until my nitrate problem is cured that I posted on another thread. This is more for info.

Torch have long, slender tentacles that end with a colored tip. They have no break in the tissue that makes up the tentacles. A frogspawn has nodules along the tentacles that look like ... frogspawn... er, eggs, that is. Hope that helps some.

So FS will have arms growing out of a tentacle and torch will all be straight with no arms or apendages?

Yup, pretty much. The "arms" growing out of a frogspawn tentacle will have the same color and shaped tip as the very end tip.
