Overview
The Symphyllia Ultra Rainbow from Indonesia is a true showstopper in the LPS category, featuring dense, fleshy lobes patterned with vibrant, natural rainbow colouration. This particular morph is hand-selected for its exceptional contrast and saturation, displaying brilliant transitions between hot pinks, neon greens, burnt oranges, and electric blues. Its unique convoluted skeletal structure enhances light reflection, making it pop under both white and actinic lighting.
Highly prized by collectors and reefers aiming for bold aesthetic impact, this coral is both a centrepiece and a hardy species when kept under stable conditions.
Care & Feeding
While photosynthetic, Symphyllia benefits from occasional feeding to support colour intensity and tissue expansion. Feed with enriched meaty foods such as mysis, brine, or reef-specific blends once or twice weekly for best results.
Optimal Parameters
Alkalinity (dKH): 8–11
Calcium (Ca): 420–460 ppm
Magnesium (Mg): 1300–1400 ppm
Nitrate (NO3): 2–10 ppm
Phosphate (PO4): 0.01–0.05 ppm
Placement
Place on the substrate or stable rock ledge with minimal flow to allow full polyp inflation. Maintain adequate space between neighbouring corals, as Symphyllia may extend sweeper tentacles at night.
