Sinularia dura (Green) is a large, soft leather coral prized for its vibrant green colour and dynamic, finger-like polyps. This species adds texture and movement to mature reef aquariums, making it a popular choice among experienced marine hobbyists.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain optimal health and vibrant colouration. Avoid intense direct lighting which may cause bleaching.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong water flow is ideal to ensure proper gas exchange and to prevent detritus accumulation on the coral’s surface.
Placement: Position this coral in a location with adequate space around it to prevent aggressive interactions with neighbouring corals. It is best placed mid to upper levels of the aquarium where water flow and light conditions are suitable.
Care Level: Moderate. Suitable for aquarists with some experience in maintaining soft corals.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals to avoid chemical warfare and physical damage.
Feeding: Primarily photosynthetic, deriving nutrition from symbiotic zooxanthellae, but may benefit from occasional supplemental feeding of fine particulate foods.
Additional Notes: Regular monitoring of water parameters and stable conditions are essential for long-term health. Avoid sudden changes in lighting or flow.
