Euphyllia yaeyamaensis (Green) Ultra is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its vibrant green tentacles and elegant, flowing appearance. This tiny-sized specimen is tank-bred, ensuring a healthier and more sustainable addition to your marine aquarium.
Lighting: Moderate to high lighting is recommended to maintain the coral’s vivid colouration and encourage polyp extension. LED or T5 lighting systems suited for LPS corals work well.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is ideal. Strong currents can damage the delicate tentacles, while too little flow may lead to detritus accumulation.
Placement: Position this coral in a location with enough space to accommodate its extended tentacles, ideally mid to lower levels of the aquarium. Ensure it is not too close to aggressive neighbours to prevent stinging interactions.
Care Level: Moderate. Euphyllia yaeyamaensis requires stable water parameters and regular monitoring but is generally hardy when provided with appropriate conditions.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals to avoid aggression. It can coexist with most peaceful reef inhabitants.
Feeding: While primarily photosynthetic, occasional feeding of meaty foods such as brine shrimp or specialised coral foods can promote growth and vibrancy.
Origin: Not Provided.
Maximum Size: Typically grows to moderate colony sizes; exact maximum size varies with care and tank conditions.
