Overview
The Mystic Aura Euphyllia is a breathtaking hybrid coral that combines vibrant green with rich purple highlights. This stunning Euphyllia paradivisa variant is known for its glowing, almost otherworldly appearance, with green base tentacles adorned with purple tips that create a magical visual effect, especially under aquarium lighting. The tentacles move gracefully in the water, giving the tank a dynamic and mesmerizing feel. Its unique colouration makes it a highly sought-after coral by collectors and reef enthusiasts alike. The Mystic Aura Euphyllia is also relatively hardy, making it a wonderful addition to a reef tank when provided with proper care.
Care & Feeding
The Mystic Aura Euphyllia thrives under moderate to high lighting, which brings out the full potential of its vibrant green and purple hues. Moderate to strong water flow is necessary to allow the tentacles to extend fully and maintain health. While it can obtain most of its nutrients from photosynthesis, occasional feedings of mysis shrimp, plankton, or specialized coral foods will support its growth and vibrant coloration. Maintaining proper levels of calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity is essential to keep its structure strong and colors rich.
