{"product_id":"reverse-frogspawn-coral","title":"Reverse Frogspawn Coral","description":"\u003cp\u003eReverse Frogspawn Coral, a variant of the popular Euphyllia divisa, is a striking large polyp stony coral known for its unique colour patterning. It is a sought-after addition to many reef aquariums, offering dynamic movement and vibrant colouration. Unlike the standard Frogspawn, this reverse variant typically presents with lighter, often contrasting, polyp tips and a darker base colour, creating a captivating visual effect. Its graceful, swaying polyps make it a focal point in a well-maintained reef. This piece measures approximately 8cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReverse Frogspawn corals exhibit large, fleshy polyps that extend from a branching or wall-like skeletal structure. Each polyp terminates in several bulbous tips, resembling a cluster of frog eggs, which gives the coral its common name. The polyps extend significantly during the day, creating a lush, flowing appearance, and retract slightly at night or when disturbed. The distinct colouration, with lighter tips over a deeper body colour, provides a beautiful contrast and highlights the intricate structure of the polyps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor optimal health, Reverse Frogspawn corals thrive in moderate to low lighting, typically between 50-150 PAR. They prefer moderate, indirect water flow to prevent tissue damage while ensuring detritus removal and nutrient delivery. Placement on the sandbed or lower to mid-rockwork is generally suitable. While primarily photosynthetic, they benefit from occasional feeding of meaty foods like mysis shrimp or copepods. Stable water parameters are crucial: Calcium 400-440 ppm, Alkalinity 8-10 dKH, Magnesium 1300-1400 ppm, and Salinity 1.025. Ensure adequate spacing from other corals, as Euphyllia can extend potent sweeper tentacles, especially at night. Acclimation should be gradual, particularly regarding lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a WYSIWYG item, so you'll receive the exact specimen pictured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that colours can look slightly different in person than in photos, depending on your lighting and screen, and the size given is an approximate guide measured at the time of listing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eastern Marine Aquariums","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50224981409847,"sku":"EMA-LPS-20260924-LXWL","price":280.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1849\/1739\/files\/c325415f-c28d-4154-8d2a-94fb1bf29987-_MG_4964.png?v=1790284582","url":"https:\/\/easternmarineaquariums.co.nz\/products\/reverse-frogspawn-coral","provider":"EasternMarine Aquariums","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
