| Fast Facts | One of the best soft corals for the aquarium. Shown is an underwater shot of two "heads" in a large colony. Most varieties are virtually indestructible in any well maintained reef aquarium. These corals can grow fast and quickly become a showpiece. Does best in medium to bright lighting, and strong water movement, but can usually adapt to a wide variety of conditions. Also known as "Leather Coral" or "Toadstool Leather". For more exotic types, see our Fiji Umbrella Leathers Note: These soft corals can expand and contract tremendously. Size will vary from smaller when you receive them, to larger until they have adjusted to your aquarium for a period of weeks. |
