This listing includes two distinct orange hammer varieties grown at Lucky Corals. For years we've searched for most orange branching hammer and these are the best varieties we've found. The LCK Orange Hammer has traditional hammer-shaped orange tips, while the Round Tip Orange Hammer develops rounded orange tips. Choose your preferred variety and a 1-, 2- or 4-polyp frag.

Care: Provide indirect water flow that gently moves the tentacles without causing the coral to remain retracted. Leave several inches between the hammer and neighboring corals because its tentacles can sting nearby livestock.
