Sinularia flexibilis (frag) | FRAG

Sinularia flexibilis is a popular soft coral species prized for its flexible, finger-like polyps that sway gracefully in aquarium currents. This frag is cultured and grown under controlled conditions, ensuring a healthy and sustainable addition to your marine reef tank.

Care Level: Easy to moderate, suitable for hobbyists with some experience in soft coral husbandry.

Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is ideal, such as LED or T5 fixtures providing a balanced spectrum. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.

Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow helps maintain polyp extension and prevents detritus accumulation without causing tissue damage.

Placement: Position in mid to lower areas of the reef tank where lighting and flow conditions are stable. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and overgrowth.

Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. Sinularia flexibilis is generally reef safe but can produce chemical defences that may affect sensitive corals.

Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae, but benefits from occasional feeding of dissolved organics or planktonic foods.

Additional Notes: Regular water quality maintenance and stable parameters are essential for optimal health. Frag size may vary; handle with care when placing in the aquarium.
