Overview

The Dusky Twilight Acanthophyllia is a coral that speaks in tones of mystery and sophistication. Sourced from the biodiverse reefs of Australia, this captivating LPS coral features a rich base of oceanic blue interwoven with warm brown stripes, creating a natural, earthy elegance that adds depth and contrast to your reefscape.

Its thick, fleshy tissue gently undulates with the current, while its subdued yet alluring color palette evokes the peaceful hush of a reef at sunset. Under the right lighting, subtle iridescent sheens shimmer across the coral’s surface, enhancing its twilight-like beauty.


Care & Feeding

Like all Acanthophyllia, the Dusky Twilight prefers consistent water conditions and benefits from a calm, low to moderate lighting environment. While it sustains itself through photosynthesis, target feeding with nutrient-rich meaty foods—like finely chopped shrimp or LPS pellets—will promote healthy tissue expansion and maintain its lush appearance.


Optimal Parameters

  • Alkalinity (dKH): 8-12

  • Calcium (Ca): 400-450 ppm

  • Magnesium (Mg): 1250-1350 ppm

  • Phosphate (PO4): 0.01-0.05 ppm


Placement

Place the Dusky Twilight Acanthophyllia on the sandy bottom or low rockwork, where it can fully expand without abrasion. It appreciates a spot with lower water movement and space to grow without interference from more aggressive neighbors. Let it bask and breathe in peace.


🌌🪸 Twilight Tranquility – With its moody blues and warm earthy stripes, the Dusky Twilight Acanthophyllia adds a calm, grounded elegance to your reef. Ideal for aquarists looking to create contrast or balance in vibrant tanks with a coral that feels both ancient and alive.
