Overview
The Jason Fox Jack-O-Lantern Leptoseris is one of the most sought-after designer encrusting corals in the reefing world. With a vivid orange base and signature glowing green eyes, this frag (similar to the one shown in the photo) is a showstopper under actinic lighting. Originally released by coral legend Jason Fox, this variety has become a favourite for reefers who want rare colour without the high-maintenance demands.
This coral is ideal for low-light zones and shaded areas of your aquascape, where it adds unbelievable glow and visual depth. As it grows, it encrusts naturally across rockwork, forming a living, neon-orange canvas.
Care & Feeding
Primarily photosynthetic, this Leptoseris thrives in stable tanks with low to moderate lighting. Occasional feeding with micro foods or powdered coral blends can promote faster encrusting and bolder coloration. Feed once per week if desired.
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
Mount the frag in a low-light or shaded area, such as a lower rock ledge or back corner of the tank. Ensure gentle flow to prevent detritus buildup. The encrusting growth pattern means it will gradually cover surfaces, so plan placement accordingly.
