Euphyllia glabrescens, commonly referred to as the Reverse Holy Grail, is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its elegant, elongated tentacles and striking colouration. This frag is cultured by DJM, ensuring a healthy, sustainably grown specimen ideal for marine aquarium enthusiasts.
Care Level: Moderate – suitable for hobbyists with some experience in LPS coral husbandry.
Lighting: Moderate to high lighting is recommended to maintain vibrant colours and healthy growth. LED, T5, or metal halide lighting systems are suitable.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is ideal to gently sway the tentacles without causing tissue damage.
Placement: Position this coral in a location with adequate space to prevent aggression towards neighbouring corals. Ensure at least 10cm clearance to avoid contact, as Euphyllia species possess sweeper tentacles that can sting adjacent corals.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae, but benefits from occasional feeding of meaty foods such as brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, or specialised coral foods to promote growth and colour.
Compatibility: Reef safe with caution; provide sufficient spacing from other corals to prevent stinging and aggression.
Origin: Not Provided – cultured specimen.
Maximum Size: Typically grows up to 30cm in diameter under optimal conditions.
Minimum Tank Size: 75 litres (20 gallons) recommended to provide stable water parameters and adequate space.
This Euphyllia glabrescens frag is an excellent addition to a mature reef aquarium, offering dynamic movement and a splash of colour. Regular monitoring of water quality and stable parameters will ensure long-term health and growth.
