Parazoanthus gracilis (Yellow) is a striking soft coral known for its bright yellow polyps that add a splash of colour and dynamic movement to reef aquariums. This medium-sized specimen is ideal for hobbyists looking to enhance their tank’s biodiversity with a hardy and visually appealing polyp coral.
Care Level: Easy to moderate care requirements make this coral suitable for aquarists with some experience in soft coral husbandry.
Lighting: Prefers moderate lighting conditions. LED or T5 lighting systems that provide balanced PAR levels are ideal to maintain vibrant coloration without causing stress.
Water Flow: Moderate water flow is recommended to ensure healthy polyp extension and to prevent detritus accumulation around the colony.
Placement: Place on rockwork or substrate where it can receive adequate light and flow, but ensure it has enough space to expand without touching neighbouring corals to avoid aggression.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals. It is generally peaceful but can release toxins, so maintain good water quality and monitor interactions.
Feeding: Primarily photosynthetic but benefits from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or coral-specific liquid foods to support growth.
Origin: Not Provided.
Maximum Size: Typically grows to a few centimetres in height and width, forming dense colonies over time.
Minimum Tank Size: A minimum of 30 litres is recommended to provide stable water parameters and adequate space.
With proper care, Parazoanthus gracilis (Yellow) can be a stunning addition to your marine reef aquarium, offering both aesthetic appeal and ecological diversity.
