Symphyllia spp. (Green) Premium is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its vibrant green hues and distinctive fleshy polyps. This XXXL specimen offers a dramatic focal point for mature reef tanks.
Lighting: Moderate to low lighting is recommended to prevent bleaching and maintain optimal colour. LED or T5 lighting systems with adjustable intensity work well.
Water Flow: Provide gentle to moderate water movement to ensure healthy tissue and prevent detritus accumulation without causing polyp retraction.
Placement: Position on the substrate or lower rockwork with ample space around it. Symphyllia spp. requires adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggressive interactions.
Care Level: Intermediate to advanced. Requires stable water parameters and attentive husbandry.
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 weekly.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing. Avoid placing near fast-growing or aggressive corals.
Regular monitoring of water quality and stable parameters are essential for long-term health. This premium XXXL Symphyllia spp. coral is a rewarding addition for dedicated marine aquarists.
