PINK TIP ELEGANCE CORAL 3"+

Elegance Coral (Catalaphyllia jardinei)

Lighting Requirements: Medium

Water Flow: Medium

Care Level: Advanced

Placement: Middle to Lower Levels

Temperament: Peaceful to Mildly Aggressive

Elegance Coral is highly prized for its dramatic, flowing polyps and striking color variations, which can range from greens and blues to pinks and purples. The coral’s long, graceful tentacles extend from a central base, giving it an elegant, flower-like appearance. This beautiful LPS coral is a showstopper in any reef aquarium, creating a stunning visual effect as it gently sways with water movement.

Elegance Coral does best under medium lighting and medium water flow, which helps to keep its polyps extended and clean of detritus. While it primarily relies on photosynthesis through its symbiotic zooxanthellae, it will benefit from occasional feedings of small plankton or coral foods to support its health and enhance its colors, especially in tanks with lower nutrient levels.

Though peaceful, Elegance Coral should be given ample space, as it can extend its tentacles that may sting nearby corals. Proper placement and water stability are crucial to keeping this coral healthy and vibrant in your reef tank.
