Blastomussa wellsi (Green) Extra Large is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its vibrant green colouration and fleshy polyps. This specimen features 10-12 heads, making it an impressive focal point for mature reef aquariums.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain optimal health and vibrant colour. Avoid intense direct light which may cause bleaching.
Water Flow: Provide low to moderate water movement to ensure adequate gas exchange and nutrient delivery without damaging the delicate polyps.
Placement: Position this coral on the substrate or lower to mid-level rockwork. Ensure sufficient space around it to prevent aggression or stinging from neighbouring corals.
Care Level: Suitable for intermediate to advanced hobbyists due to its specific lighting and flow requirements.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae, but benefits from supplemental feeding of meaty foods such as mysis shrimp or specialised coral foods 1-2 times per week.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to avoid contact with other corals, as Blastomussa wellsi can extend sweeper tentacles.
Regular water parameter monitoring and stable conditions are essential to maintain health and growth.
