LPS Coral
Gold Symphyllia.
A large brain coral with maze-like ridges and a warm gold tone — a bold, fleshy centerpiece for the reef floor. An LPS that likes low-to-moderate light and gentle flow on the sand bed; the occasional feeding keeps its color rich.

Good tank mates
A large-polyp stony coral that is fine around peaceful reef fish and invertebrates, but it can extend short sweeper tentacles and digest neighbors, so leave open space between it and other corals. Reef-safe fish that won't nip coral are ideal tankmates; avoid known coral-nipping fish and aggressive corals placed too close. Keep it away from light-and-flow-loving SPS so neither overgrows the other.
Good to know
Symphyllia are brain-type corals whose fleshy, maze-like ridges can show striking color contrast, and a healthy colony can repair and regrow over damaged skeleton.
Stock and individual temperament vary — call (814) 456-9445 for pairing advice before you buy.
