Species: Stylocoeniella spp.
Coral Type: SPS (Small Polyp Stony Coral)
WWC Firestone Stylocoeniella is a vibrant encrusting SPS coral prized for its fiery coloration and fine-textured appearance. This coral forms thin, spreading mats covered in tiny polyps that create a smooth yet highly detailed surface across rockwork. Its intense combination of glowing orange, red, and ember-like tones is often accented by contrasting fluorescent highlights that become especially vivid under actinic or blue-spectrum lighting. As the colony expands, WWC Firestone Stylocoeniella develops a bright, molten appearance that adds striking color and texture to any reef aquarium.
Coral Type: SPS
Lighting: Moderate to High lighting requirements (approximately 150–300 PAR)
Flow Rate: Moderate to High; strong, random water movement helps maintain healthy tissue growth and prevents detritus accumulation
Food Requirements: Primarily photosynthetic through symbiotic zooxanthellae; may benefit from occasional feedings of fine particulate coral foods or amino acid supplementation
Aggression: Peaceful; lacks sweeper tentacles but should be given room to encrust without competition from neighboring corals
Placement: Best placed on stable rockwork in areas with strong lighting and consistent flow where the colony can fully encrust and expand
