Overview
The Euphyllia "Lavender Twilight" Paradivisa Coral is a stunning and graceful addition to any reef aquarium, with soft green tentacles gently transitioning into soothing lavender purple tips. The delicate lavender hue adds a soft, ethereal touch, creating a serene and captivating presence that will enhance the beauty of your tank. The flowing polyps move gently with the current, offering a sense of dynamic elegance.
This coral is native to the Indo-Pacific and thrives under moderate lighting and water flow, mimicking the peaceful conditions of its natural habitat.
Care & Feeding
The Lavender Twilight Paradivisa Coral is primarily photosynthetic, relying on its symbiotic zooxanthellae to produce most of its nutrition. However, to enhance its growth and coloration, occasional feedings of meaty foods such as mysis shrimp or brine shrimp are recommended.
Maintaining stable water conditions is essential to preserving the vivid lavender tips. Ensuring proper levels of calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity promotes healthy skeletal development, while controlling nitrate and phosphate levels will prevent algae from competing with the coral for light and nutrients.
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
For optimal growth and aesthetic appeal, place the Lavender Twilight Paradivisa Coral in the bottom to middle sections of your aquarium. Ensure enough space around the coral, as it has a semi-aggressive nature and may sting nearby corals.
Bring a touch of tranquility and elegance to your reef with the Euphyllia "Lavender Twilight" Paradivisa Coral, a beautifully soft and captivating specimen that adds a calming lavender glow to your aquatic landscape.
