WWC Blue Sympodium Coral
Species: Sympodium spp.
Coral Type: Soft Coral / Colonial Mat-Forming Coral
Description:
WWC Blue Sympodium Coral is an attractive soft coral prized for its blue-toned coloration and delicate polyps that create a textured, carpet-like appearance across rockwork. Its compact growth and subtle movement add color and visual interest to a reef aquarium. With stable water parameters, suitable lighting, and gentle to moderate flow, this coral can gradually develop into a beautiful colony.
Coral Type: Soft Coral / Sympodium
Lighting: Low to Moderate — approximately 50–150 PAR
Flow Rate: Low to Moderate, with gentle, indirect flow to prevent debris from collecting between polyps
Food Requirements: Primarily photosynthetic; occasional supplemental feeding with fine particulate coral foods may be beneficial
Aggression: Generally peaceful, but may spread across nearby surfaces and compete with other corals for space
Placement: Lower to middle rockwork or an isolated frag island, with enough room for the colony to expand without encroaching on neighboring corals.
Quarantine & Biosecurity:
We maintain a rigorous, veterinarian-approved quarantine program designed to protect the health of our coral collection and help reduce the introduction of unwanted pests and pathogens. Each coral is carefully inspected and monitored before being made available, providing an added layer of confidence when introducing new specimens to your reef system.
