Description

This Platygyra sp. features a vibrant maze pattern with bright green valleys and contrasting purple-pink ridges. Under blue LED lighting, this coral shows excellent fluorescence and strong definition, making it a striking addition to any LPS or mixed reef aquarium. The coral has a healthy, dense skeletal structure and displays full, fleshy tissue across its surface.

This is a WYSIWYG listing — the coral shown in the photo is the exact specimen you will receive.

Care Instructions:

  • Lighting: Moderate LED lighting to maintain strong colours and patterns.

  • Flow: Low to moderate; avoid direct, high flow to protect tissue.

  • Placement: Mid to lower areas of the aquarium on rock or sand.

  • Feeding: Accepts small particulate coral foods and LPS pellets; occasional feeding enhances growth.

  • Water Parameters: Maintain stable reef conditions (Alk 8–9 dKH, Ca 420–450 ppm, Mg 1300–1400 ppm, NO₃ 5–15 ppm, PO₄ 0.03–0.1 ppm).

Why This Coral Is a Great Choice:

  • Beautiful multi-colour maze pattern

  • Strong fluorescence

  • Hardy and easy to keep

  • Suitable for both beginners and advanced reefers

  • True WYSIWYG piece

Our Quarantine Procedures

We take livestock seriously. That's why we don't sell anything we wouldn't be comfortable putting in our own tank.

As we are direct from source, we import and sell direct to the public. This means you can buy with confidence knowing EMA prides itself on excellent handling and conditioning protocols.

Fish

All our fish held in a quarantine system for a minimum of 3 weeks. During this time, regular water changes are performed, and twice daily (or sometimes more) feedings are performed.

Copper is dosed and checked twice a day for ich and velvet.

During this treatment fish are given formalin baths for brooklynella and a minimum of 3 praziquantel doses is performed for flukes.

Coral

Our coral is quarantined for a minimum of 3 weeks, just like fish. During this time, regular water changes are performed, water testing done, and once a month a Fauna Marin ICP Total is performed.

Corals are inspected for pests/general health and are provided with a pest dip once a week for at least 3 weeks.

If we see signs of pests, the quarantine period is extended and/or additional dips are performed

If coral is bleached/unhealthy, it will remain in quarantine until healthy enough to sell.

Payment & Security

    We offer a number of different payment methods, including Credit Card, Afterpay, Q Card, Pay at Collection, Bank Transfer and POLi.

    Credit card payments are processed securely using the highest possible security protocols.
