Blastomussa wellsi is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its vibrant colours and fleshy polyps. This premium medium-sized specimen features 6-7 healthy heads, making it an excellent addition to mature reef aquariums.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain optimal health and coloration. Avoid intense direct light which may cause bleaching.
Water Flow: Provide low to moderate water flow to ensure adequate nutrient delivery without damaging the delicate polyps.
Placement: Place Blastomussa wellsi on the substrate or lower rockwork to mimic its natural habitat. Ensure sufficient space from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression, as it can extend sweeper tentacles.
Care Level: Suitable for intermediate to advanced hobbyists due to its specific lighting and flow needs.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing; avoid placing near aggressive corals.
Regular water quality maintenance and stable parameters are essential for long-term success. Feeding with meaty foods such as mysis or specialised coral foods can enhance growth and vibrancy.
