If youre using apo to render, try increasing the quality setting to 1000 and the filter radius to 0.3 and oversample to 1.You'll see quite a difference.What it does is decrease the amount of pixels that show through as background.In other words, it solidifies your flames.When you use UF to layer your flames, set the Iteration density higher in the outside tab of the flame fractal coloring.
