🧬 Overview

The Ember Glow Lobophyllia is a small but striking coral that adds an intense burst of colour and life to any reef aquarium. Its compact size and strong fluorescence make it ideal for nano and mixed reefs alike.

Each specimen glows with a rich orange hue reminiscent of burning embers — a perfect balance of warmth and elegance. Despite its small size, it inflates impressively and holds its colour well under a range of lighting conditions.

🍽️ Care & Feeding

While primarily photosynthetic, this coral benefits from occasional target feeding with small meaty foods such as mysis shrimp or reef roids once or twice a week. Regular supplementation of calcium, magnesium, and trace elements supports steady growth and vibrant pigmentation.

📈 Optimal Parameters

📍 Placement

Place on a soft sandbed or stable flat surface with gentle, indirect flow to allow full polyp expansion. Avoid direct light transitions and aggressive neighbours.
