Blue Discosoma spp. are popular soft corals known for their vibrant blue colour and distinctive mushroom-like appearance. This Grade A tiny specimen is tank-bred, ensuring hardiness and adaptability to captive reef environments.
Care Level: Easy to moderate, suitable for hobbyists with some reef experience.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain vibrant colouration without causing bleaching. LED or T5 lighting systems with adjustable intensity work well.
Water Flow: Gentle to moderate water movement is ideal. Too strong a current can cause the coral to retract and stress.
Placement: Position on rockwork or substrate with adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression or overgrowth. Blue Discosoma spp. are generally peaceful but can extend sweeper tentacles.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae, but will benefit from occasional feeding of microplankton or coral foods.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to avoid contact with more aggressive corals.
Additional Notes: Being tank-bred, this coral adapts well to aquarium conditions and helps promote sustainable reefkeeping. Regular water quality maintenance and stable parameters will ensure optimal health.
