Overview
The "Grafted Plerogyra Coral" is a stunning and rare specimen featuring a unique grey base adorned with subtle yellow shades, creating an elegant and sophisticated color contrast. This beautiful coral exhibits the natural beauty of Plerogyra species with the added bonus of vibrant, grafted hues, making it a desirable addition to any reef tank. Its distinct appearance is perfect for those looking to add a touch of understated elegance to their aquarium.

Native to the Indo-Pacific, the Grafted Plerogyra Coral thrives in moderate lighting and prefers moderate water flow, which encourages the full extension of its polyps, allowing its colors to truly shine. This peaceful coral can be placed near other non-aggressive species without fear of stinging or overgrowth.

While primarily photosynthetic, the Grafted Plerogyra will benefit from occasional supplemental feedings of small meaty foods like mysis shrimp or zooplankton, which will promote its growth and enhance the overall vibrancy of its color palette.

To maintain the health and beauty of this coral, stable water conditions must be maintained, with balanced calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity levels to support skeletal growth. Keeping nitrate and phosphate levels low will help prevent unwanted algae growth and keep the coral's striking colors intact.

The Grafted Plerogyra Coral comes unmounted, ready to be placed in the ideal location within your reef tank. Approximate size: 5-7 cm in diameter.
