This Scolymia australis features a bold, fleshy disc structure with vibrant colouration and a clean, well-inflated appearance. Measuring approximately 6cm across, this WYSIWYG piece showcases the exact coral you will receive. Its smooth tissue, defined radial patterns, and bright contrasting tones make it an excellent centrepiece for both LPS-dominated and mixed reef aquariums.
Scolymia australis are known for their hardiness and their ability to thrive in a variety of reef conditions, provided stability is maintained. Their large, responsive feeding tentacles make them both visually dynamic and highly adaptable to captive care. With proper placement and nutrition, this specimen will continue to develop rich colouration and improved tissue expansion over time.
For best results, provide moderate lighting, gentle to moderate indirect flow, and occasional feedings of meaty foods such as mysis, LPS pellets, or reef-specific frozen blends. Place the coral on a stable substrate or open sand bed, ensuring it is not exposed to excessive direct flow that may cause tissue recession. Maintain consistent reef parameters—alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium within natural seawater ranges—to support ongoing health, growth, and colour vibrancy.
A beautiful, well-sized WYSIWYG Scolymia australis ideal for collectors seeking a striking, easy-to-keep showpiece.
