Euphyllia paraancora (Green) Ultra Frag is a stunning large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its vibrant green tentacles and unique hammer-shaped polyps. This tank-bred frag is cultivated under controlled conditions, ensuring robust health and acclimatisation to captive reef environments.
Lighting: Moderate to high lighting is recommended to maintain the coral’s vivid coloration and promote healthy growth. LED or T5 lighting systems that provide a balanced spectrum work well.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is ideal. Too strong a current can damage the delicate tentacles, while too little flow may reduce nutrient exchange.
Placement: Position this coral in the middle to lower regions of the aquarium where it can extend its tentacles freely without touching neighbouring corals. Adequate spacing is essential to prevent aggression and stinging from its sweeper tentacles.
Care Level: Intermediate. Requires stable water parameters and regular monitoring to thrive.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals. Avoid placing near aggressive species or fast-growing corals that may overshadow it.
Feeding: While Euphyllia paraancora benefits from photosynthesis via its symbiotic zooxanthellae, supplemental feeding with meaty foods such as brine shrimp or specialised coral foods can enhance growth and colour.
This frag is supplied as a single head (1 hd.) and is ideal for hobbyists seeking to add a dynamic and visually striking LPS coral to their marine reef aquarium.
