☢️💛🪸 Euphyllia ancora “Toxic Graft” – Cut-to-Order Frags
CTO Specimen – Grafted Toxic Yellow Hammer Coral
🔹 Quick Stats
Care Level: Moderate
Temperament: Semi-aggressive (sweeper tentacles)
Colour Form: These grafted Euphyllia ancora frags display a striking fusion of toxic neon yellow and vivid green tones within the same polyp structure. Under actinic lighting, the yellow pigments glow with extreme fluorescence while the green sections intensify into electric lime hues. Under balanced white lighting, the coral reveals a complex blend of acid yellow, chartreuse and vibrant green with visible graft transitions across the tissue.
Water Conditions: 24–26 °C, dKH 7.5–8.5, pH 8.0–8.4, sg 1.024–1.026
Family: Euphylliidae
Lighting: Moderate (PAR 80–150)
Water Flow: Low to Moderate, indirect
Placement: Mid to lower reef
Type: Cut-to-Order (CTO) Frag
🧬 Overview
The Euphyllia ancora “Toxic Graft” represents a rare and highly sought-after colour morph, where two distinct pigmentations coexist within the same coral through grafting. The result is a visually dynamic hammer coral with unpredictable and evolving colour patterns.
Each frag carries the genetic potential to develop unique colour splits, streaks and gradients over time, making every piece a one-of-a-kind collector item. Under blue spectrum lighting, the toxic yellow fluorescence becomes exceptionally intense, creating a glowing focal point in any reef system.
As the coral grows, the grafted patterns can further evolve, enhancing both contrast and visual complexity.
🧾 CTO (Cut-to-Order)
Frags are freshly cut from a healthy mother colony. You will receive a frag similar to the photos, selected for colour quality and viability.
Please note:
• Healing time may be required before shipping
• Colour distribution and graft patterns will vary
• Each frag is unique and may evolve over time
Selected for:
• Extreme toxic-yellow fluorescence
• Visible grafted colour fusion (yellow + green)
• Strong polyp structure and extension
• High-end collector morph potential
• Unique, evolving colour patterns
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Euphyllia corals benefit from both photosynthesis and occasional feeding.
Recommended feeding occasionally:
• Mysis shrimp or finely chopped marine foods
• LPS pellets
• Target feeding to promote growth and splitting
📈 Optimal Parameters
Parameter | Ideal Range
Alkalinity (dKH) | 7.5–8.5
Calcium (Ca) | 420–450 ppm
Magnesium (Mg) | 1300–1400 ppm
Nitrate (NO₃) | 5–15 ppm
Phosphate (PO₄) | 0.03–0.10 ppm
📍 Placement
Place in areas with gentle, indirect flow to allow full polyp expansion. Ensure spacing from neighbouring corals due to sweeper tentacles. Best suited for mid to lower zones with stable lighting.
