Firework Clove Polyps (Clavularia sp.) – 6–8 Polyp Frag

About this coral

Firework Clove Polyps (Clavularia sp.) – 6–8 Polyp Frag is offered under the retail name shown in the product title.

These are Clavularia clove polyps, an encrusting soft coral that can spread by runners across connected rockwork. Color terms are aquarium-trade descriptors and apparent color can vary with lighting spectrum, intensity, nutrients, and photography.

Care Guide

Lighting: Low to moderate — PAR 50–150. Acclimate gradually after shipping or a major lighting change.
Flow: Moderate — enough to keep the polyps gently swaying without pinning them down.
Placement: Middle-to-lower rockwork with room to spread. An isolated rock can make future containment easier.
Compatibility: Peaceful, but fast-growing. Give the colony its own island or a clear boundary.
Feeding: Direct feeding is optional. Normal reef feeding and stable nutrients are usually sufficient.

Keep salinity, temperature, and alkalinity stable. Avoid placing the colony where detritus can collect between closed polyps.

Shipping: Ships UPS Next Day Air from Key West. Current eligibility and delivery timing are shown at checkout.
