{"product_id":"toxic-green-elegance","title":"Toxic Green Elegance","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Elegance Coral, Catalaphyllia jardinei, is a unique large polyp stony coral known for its long, flowing tentacles that create a sense of movement unlike any other coral. It has been a centrepiece in marine aquariums for decades. This variety displays the classic bright green colour that makes the species so recognisable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe animal grows from a v-shaped skeleton which anchors it into a soft substrate. From this base, it expands a large fleshy body with a striped oral disc and dozens of long, flowing tentacles. In this green variant, the tentacles are a vibrant green colour, often tipped with contrasting pink, purple, or cream dots that can fluoresce under actinic lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a home reef, the Elegance Coral does best placed directly on the sandbed. It requires low to moderate water flow, just enough to cause the tentacles to sway gently without being blasted. Lighting should also be in the low to moderate range, typically around 100-200 PAR, as high light can cause tissue recession. While photosynthetic, it does benefit from occasional target feeding of meaty foods. The Elegance has long, potent sweeper tentacles, so it needs to be given plenty of space from its neighbours. This species can be sensitive to changes in water quality, so a slow drip acclimation is recommended to help it adjust to its new home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts impressive size and constant motion make the Elegance Coral a standout specimen in any reef aquarium stable enough to house one. The specimen you receive will be a healthy animal of this same species, hand-picked for size and colour similar to the one pictured.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is not a WYSIWYG item, however you'll receive a specimen similar to the one in the photo.
