Euphyllia yaeyamaensis (Green) (Ultra)

Euphyllia yaeyamaensis is a rare species of Euphyllia coral, occasionally found in the aquarium trade very similar to Euphyllia paradivisa. It has a branching skeleton and fleshy polyp structure. Polyps are thick, fleshy and short, with slightly rounded, clubbed, or indistinct tips, less defined than traditional frogspawn or hammer forms.

Care in Aquariums:

• Lighting: Low to Moderate.
• Water Flow: Low to Moderate.
• Placement: Middle to bottom of the tank. They have stinging tentacles and can be aggressive to nearby corals.
• Feeding: Mostly photosynthetic, but it can also take meaty foods like mysis shrimp.
