Overview
The Euphyllia "Golden Dawn" Paradivisa Coral radiates with its vivid green tentacles and striking golden-yellow tips. The combination of green and gold creates an aura of warmth and positivity, making this coral an eye-catching centerpiece in your reef aquarium. Its flowing polyps gracefully sway in the current, adding a dynamic and peaceful element to your tank.

Care & Feeding
The Golden Dawn Paradivisa Coral is primarily photosynthetic, relying on its symbiotic zooxanthellae for most of its nutrition. However, to enhance its growth and color intensity, feeding small meaty foods like mysis shrimp or brine shrimp can be highly beneficial.
Maintaining stable water conditions is essential for preserving its golden tips. Proper levels of calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity promote strong skeletal development, while controlling nitrate and phosphate levels will help prevent algae from affecting the coral’s stunning color.
Optimal Parameters
- Alkalinity (dKH): 8-12
- Calcium (Ca): 400-450 ppm
- Magnesium (Mg): 1250-1350 ppm
- Nitrate (NO3): 1-10 ppm
- Phosphate (PO4): 0.01-0.05 ppm
Placement
Place the Golden Dawn Paradivisa Coral in the bottom to middle areas of your aquarium, ensuring it has ample space for its tentacles to spread freely. Due to its semi-aggressive nature, it should be positioned away from other corals to prevent stinging.
