Rhodactis indosinensis (Blue) is a captivating soft coral known for its striking blue coloration and unique texture. This small-sized specimen, sold per ear, is an excellent addition to reef tanks, providing both visual interest and biodiversity.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is ideal for this coral. It thrives under LED or T5 lighting systems that provide balanced PAR levels without excessive intensity.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is recommended to ensure the coral’s polyps can extend fully without being damaged by strong currents.
Placement: Position the coral on rockwork or substrate where it has room to expand. Maintain adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and ensure healthy growth.
Care Level: Suitable for aquarists with some experience in soft coral husbandry. It is relatively hardy but benefits from stable water parameters and regular monitoring.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals. Avoid placing near aggressive species that may sting or overshadow it.
Feeding: Primarily photosynthetic but will benefit from occasional feeding of microplankton or coral-specific liquid foods to support growth and vibrancy.
This coral originates from the Indo-Pacific region and typically reaches a modest size, making it suitable for small to medium reef tanks.
