Euphyllia yaeyamaensis (Green) Ultra is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its striking green tentacles and unique ultra morph. This small specimen is ideal for marine aquarium enthusiasts looking to add vibrant colour and movement to their reef display.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain optimal health and vibrant coloration. LED or T5 lighting systems providing moderate PAR levels are suitable.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is best to ensure the coral’s delicate tentacles are gently swayed without being damaged by strong currents.
Placement: Position this coral in a location with adequate space to prevent aggression towards neighbouring corals, as Euphyllia species possess sweeper tentacles. Mid to lower reef levels are ideal.
Care Level: Moderate care is required. Stable water parameters and regular monitoring will support healthy growth.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals to avoid stinging interactions. Not aggressive towards fish or invertebrates.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic, but benefits from occasional feeding of meaty foods such as brine shrimp or specialised coral foods to enhance growth.
Additional Notes: This coral is a slow to moderate grower and appreciates stable water chemistry. Regular calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium supplementation is recommended.
