Euphyllia paradivisa (Green) Ultra is a stunning large polyp stony (LPS) coral known for its striking green tentacles and flowing movement. This small-sized specimen is ideal for hobbyists looking to introduce vibrant colour and dynamic texture to their reef aquariums.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is recommended, such as T5 fluorescents or LED setups with medium PAR levels. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is best to encourage natural polyp movement without causing tissue damage.
Placement: Position this coral in a mid to lower area of the tank where it can extend its tentacles freely. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggressive interactions, as Euphyllia species possess sweeper tentacles.
Care Level: Suitable for intermediate aquarists familiar with LPS coral husbandry. Maintain stable water parameters with regular testing and water changes.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae, but benefits from occasional feeding of meaty foods such as brine shrimp or specialised coral foods.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to avoid coral warfare. Not aggressive towards fish or invertebrates.
Origin: Not Provided.
Maximum Size: Colonies can grow to approximately 30cm in diameter under optimal conditions.
Minimum Tank Size: A minimum of 75 litres (20 gallons) is recommended to provide stable water conditions and space for growth.
