Symphyllia (Australophyllia) wilsoni is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its vibrant colours and unique skeletal structure. This premium frag is tank-bred and cultured under optimal conditions, ensuring healthy growth and excellent acclimation to home marine aquariums.
Lighting: Moderate to low lighting is recommended to prevent bleaching and maintain vibrant pigmentation. LED or T5 lighting systems with adjustable intensity work well.
Water Flow: Provide gentle to moderate water flow to facilitate nutrient exchange without causing tissue damage. Avoid strong direct currents.
Placement: Position the frag on the substrate or lower rockwork where it can expand comfortably. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and stinging.
Care Level: Suitable for intermediate aquarists with some experience in LPS coral husbandry. Stable water parameters and regular maintenance are essential.
Diet: While primarily photosynthetic, Symphyllia wilsoni benefits from supplemental feeding of meaty foods such as mysis shrimp or specialised coral foods 1-2 times weekly.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. This species can extend sweeper tentacles and may sting nearby corals if placed too close.
Additional Notes: Maintain stable calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels to support skeletal growth. Monitor water quality closely to avoid nitrate and phosphate spikes.
