Fascinating patterned LPS coral in orange.

We generally show the coral frags under different
light settings:

  • Top view blue light - 20,000 K
  • Top view daylight - 12,000 K
  • Reef tank shot without filter
  • Reef tank shot with orange filter (= filter shot)
  • Variation of frags
  • optional: picture of the broodstock

When taking a filter shot, we deliberately choose not to use too much blue light in order to display the colors as naturally as possible and as one would perceive them without filter glasses. Please note that deviations can still occur due to certain display and lighting settings and subjective perception.

In terms of size, you can use the light grid plate to help you: one square is 1.6 x 1.6 cm. Our frag plugs measure 2 or 3 cm in diameter.

Acanthastrea corals

Acanthastrea corals are classified as LPS corals and have large, fleshy polyps. They come in a wide variety of colors and are extremely popular in marine aquariums. In the aquarium, they feel particularly comfortable under moderate, blue-colored lighting. Occasional nighttime feeding will accelerate their growth.

Acanthastrea aka Micromussa aka Homophyllia

Some species of the Acanthastrea group are now taxonomically classified as Micromussa or Homophyllia . Since Acanthastrea is still the most common name in marine aquariums, we continue to use it as a synonym.
