WWC Rainbow Sprinkles Cespitularia

Species: Cespitularia spp.

Coral Type: Soft Coral / Cespitularia

WWC Rainbow Sprinkles Cespitularia is a stunning and delicate soft coral prized for its flowing growth form, fine polyps, and vibrant coloration. Its slender branches and small, delicate polyps create an elegant, waving appearance in the reef aquarium, while its contrasting tones and fluorescent highlights can become especially vivid under blue-spectrum and actinic lighting. As the colony matures, it develops into a graceful, bushy formation that adds movement, texture, and a unique splash of color to the reef.

Coral Type: Soft Coral / Cespitularia
Lighting: Moderate lighting requirements (approximately 75–150 PAR)
Flow Rate: Moderate; steady, indirect water movement encourages full polyp extension and helps keep debris from accumulating throughout the colony
Food Requirements: Primarily photosynthetic through symbiotic zooxanthellae; occasional feedings of fine particulate coral foods may support growth, coloration, and overall health
Aggression: Peaceful to Semi-Aggressive; generally non-stinging, but adequate space should be provided as the colony expands and develops its branching structure
Placement: Best placed on stable rockwork in an area with moderate, indirect flow and consistent lighting. Give the colony room to expand and avoid placing it directly against neighboring corals.

We 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. Our biosecurity practices reduce the risk of cross-contamination between systems, meaning all of our livestock are carefully quarantined and prepared for your display tank.
