Soft coral reef polyps possess distinct characteristics that set them apart in the mesmerizing realm of coral life. Unlike other coral groups, soft corals have fleshier bodies that seemingly lack a traditional skeletal framework.
The beauty of beginner soft corals lies in their versatility and adaptability, making them highly suitable for newcomers in the world of aquarium keeping. These corals are more forgiving when it comes to nutrient levels in the tank, tolerating higher nutrient systems with ease. They also don't require strict adherence to specific chemical parameters like calcium and alkalinity, often needed to care for other corals. Additionally, they'll thrive primarily on photosynthesis, but some (like larger mushrooms) may benefit from regular feedings of traditional live coral foods.

Yes. Leather coral polyps have a fascinating ability to produce and release toxins known as terpenoids through a remarkable process called allelopathy. These terpenoid toxins play a crucial role in the coral's defense mechanism. If you purchase leather coral reef polyps, be mindful of their placement with your other tank inhabitants.
Hard corals, often called SPS (small polyp stony) corals, belong to the Scleractinia order and play a crucial role in forming coral reefs. They build large, solid skeletons made of calcium carbonate.
Soft corals, on the other hand, showcase their own unique characteristics. Soft corals don't form complete calcium carbonate skeletons, unlike their hard coral counterparts. Instead, they develop remarkably fleshy polyps that exhibit captivating shapes, sizes, colors and intricate patterns.
Absolutely! Implementing a quarantine process for all livestock is of utmost importance when adding new members to your display tank. Regardless of the source or origin, any soft coral polyps introduced into your tank have the potential to carry pests that can wreak havoc on the existing inhabitants and even pose a threat to the overall health of your reef.
