Euphyllia divisa, commonly known as the Frogspawn coral, is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its unique branching tentacles and vibrant green hues. This premium large specimen offers a dramatic display in any mature reef aquarium.
Lighting: Euphyllia divisa thrives under moderate lighting conditions. LED, T5, or metal halide lighting systems providing medium PAR levels are ideal to maintain its vivid colour and healthy growth.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is recommended to gently sway the tentacles without causing tissue damage. Avoid strong direct currents which can stress the coral.
Placement: Position this coral in the middle to lower regions of the tank, ensuring ample space around it to prevent aggression towards neighbouring corals. Euphyllia divisa has sweeper tentacles that can sting adjacent corals, so maintain at least 10-15 cm clearance.
Care Level: Suitable for intermediate to advanced hobbyists due to its specific lighting and spacing needs.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae, but will benefit from occasional feeding of meaty foods such as brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, or specialised coral foods to promote growth and vibrancy.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to prevent coral warfare.
Additional Notes: Regular water parameter monitoring is essential. Maintain stable conditions with temperature between 24-27°C, salinity at 1.023-1.025 SG, and low nutrient levels to prevent algae overgrowth.
