🧬 Overview
The Crimson Halo Wellsophyllia is a true collector’s coral — a living gemstone born of colour and motion. Its sculpted surface and hypnotic hues make it an irresistible focal point for any reef. Each fold seems to breathe, shifting tone and texture as the light changes, evoking the glow of precious metal beneath tropical waters.

Highly sought by LPS enthusiasts, this coral embodies both intensity and serenity — its radiant red body contrasted by a tranquil blue-green core that draws the eye like a heartbeat in the reef.

🍽️ Care & Feeding
While photosynthetic, Wellsophyllia radiata thrives with supplemental feedings 1–2 times per week. Offer finely chopped Mysis, Brine Shrimp, or powdered coral foods. Maintain stable trace elements — especially manganese, strontium, and iron — to support colour vibrancy and tissue health.

📈 Optimal Parameters

📍 Placement
Place on the sandbed in gentle, laminar flow, allowing the coral’s tissue to expand without abrasion. Keep distance from aggressive LPS species — its delicate mantle can be damaged by contact or excessive flow.
