It typically features dark base tones—ranging from deep charcoal and forest green to muted brown—interrupted by vividly colored corallite centers in shades of neon green, electric teal, or fiery orange. This contrast creates a “sinister” dappled pattern across the colony’s dome-shaped or encrusting growth form. Each polyp is clearly defined by raised skeletal ridges, giving the coral a rugged, brain-like texture. Under actinic and blue lighting, the fluorescent centers glow intensely, creating a dramatic, high-contrast appearance that stands out in lower-light reef zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"844\" data-end=\"1502\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"844\" data-end=\"859\"\u003eCoral Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e LPS (Large Polyp Stony)\u003cbr data-start=\"883\" data-end=\"886\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"886\" data-end=\"899\"\u003eLighting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low to Moderate (approximately 50–150 PAR)\u003cbr data-start=\"942\" data-end=\"945\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"945\" data-end=\"959\"\u003eFlow Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low to Moderate with gentle, indirect flow to allow full polyp extension without tissue stress\u003cbr data-start=\"1054\" data-end=\"1057\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1057\" data-end=\"1079\"\u003eFood Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Primarily photosynthetic but benefits from regular target feeding of meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, finely chopped seafood, or LPS coral blends.\u003cbr data-start=\"1227\" data-end=\"1230\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1230\" data-end=\"1245\"\u003eAggression:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate; capable of extending sweeper tentacles at night and should be given adequate spacing from neighboring corals.\u003cbr data-start=\"1365\" data-end=\"1368\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1382\"\u003eSubstrate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Best placed on stable rockwork or low reef structures where it can expand without contact with more delicate species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1504\" data-end=\"1858\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eWe maintain a rigorous, veterinarian-approved quarantine program that includes proactive treatments, careful observation, and daily monitoring to ensure the highest standards of coral and invertebrate health.
