Description
HELIOFUNGIA – long-tentacled Heliofungia plate coral.
You receive the exact specimen shown in the original photographs. Specimen 1402-R. The photographs were taken under blue aquarium lighting; colours can look different under your own lighting.
Size stated in the offer: 9 x 9 cm.
Light and flow
Light: moderate, initially acclimating in a protected position after transport. Flow: gentle to moderate and indirect, without continuously forcing tentacles to one side.
Placement in your reef
On an open sand bed with ample space for extended tentacles; do not glue it down.
Feeding and ongoing care
Offer small suitable marine food pieces when feeding responses are visible and remove leftovers.
Heliofungia is sensitive to tissue injury. Avoid sharp rock, never lift it by soft tissue and do not assume it is an undemanding beginner coral.
Keep water conditions stable
As a general reef starting point: 24–26 °C, salinity 34–35 PSU, alkalinity 7–8.5 dKH, calcium 410–450 mg/l and magnesium 1,250–1,400 mg/l. Stability matters more than abruptly chasing a number. Avoid complete nutrient depletion and check trends rather than reacting to a single reading.
For a consistent testing routine, see our reef water testing guide.
