🧬 Overview
The Parancora “Solar Ember Torch” is a striking Euphyllia morph prized for its deep orange pigmentation and fluid torch-like extension. Unlike softer pastel variants, this specimen displays a strong, confident orange tone that remains stable over time when kept under balanced nutrients and moderate light.
Each WYSIWYG specimen is carefully selected for:
-
Intense, consistent orange coloration
-
Full polyp extension and healthy tissue inflation
-
Clean skeletal structure and strong base attachment
-
Proven stability in reef aquarium conditions
A perfect choice for reefers seeking movement, warmth, and colour impact without overly fluorescent neon tones.
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Parancora Euphyllia are photosynthetic but respond very well to supplemental feeding, promoting faster growth and thicker tentacles.
Feed 1–2× weekly with:
-
Small meaty foods (mysis, artemia, calanus)
-
LPS-specific coral foods
-
Target feed with pumps off for best response
📈 Optimal Parameters
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|---|---|
| Alkalinity (dKH) | 7.5–9 |
| 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 an area with gentle, indirect flow to allow the tentacles to sway naturally without retracting.
Keep adequate distance from other corals due to its semi-aggressive nature.
Ideal as a stand-alone show coral or as a warm contrast among green, gold, or blue Euphyllia gardens.
