Neptune War Coral (Favites pentagona)

Regular price £39.99

The Neptune War coral has a very bright blue background adorned with vibrant green polyps, which is how it earned its named 

It prefers medium light, therefore it is ideally placed in the mid to low areas of the tank 

War corals are an LPS coral (Large polyp stony), which have some of the most diverse and striking colouration of any coral.

They are reasonably fast growers in the correct environment and are great at encrusting over the rockwork

Although correct lighting and flow is important, its also wise to take into consideration Calcium, Alkalinity, and Magnesium along with various other trace elements found in natural seawater.

Additional feeding isn't required to maintain its health however it will feed on micro-plankton and very fine coral foods. 

Be sure not to place it too close to other corals as at night it will release its sweeper tentacles which are approximately 1cm long.
