Sonic the Hedgehog Galaxea – Aquacultured LPS Coral | coralSLover®

Introduce a splash of cosmic beauty into your reef aquarium with the Sonic the Hedgehog Galaxea, an extraordinary aquacultured LPS coral from coralSLover®. This stunning coral features a vivid bright green base, rich purple tentacles, and brilliant white tips that sparkle like distant stars. Its dense clusters of glowing tips give the colony a signature galaxy-like appearance, transforming any marine display into a radiant underwater cosmos.

The Sonic the Hedgehog Galaxea has been part of the coralSLover® aquaculture program, originally obtained as a small frag for our private collection. Over nearly a decade of careful propagation, it has proven remarkably stable, resilient, and adaptable to aquarium conditions. By cultivating it entirely in our controlled systems, we ensure a healthy, fully acclimated coral while protecting natural reefs from collection stress.

Scientific Notes:
Galaxea species are known for their long, expressive tentacles and vibrant polyp colors. Their fluorescence and color intensity can vary depending on light spectrum, water parameters, and flow, making each frag a unique display of nature’s artistry. Like other LPS corals, they expand their polyps at night for feeding and contribute to reef biodiversity by providing shelter for microfauna.

Frag Size: Approximately 1" clusters when fully open. Skeletal Base: Up to 3/4".

Care Level: Moderate — prefers stable water parameters, moderate to strong flow, and lighting that supports LPS fluorescence.

Great For: Reef enthusiasts seeking a visually striking, rare aquacultured LPS coral with proven stability and a “wow factor” centerpiece for their aquarium.

Lighting: Moderate to moderately high lighting brings out vibrant coloration and supports steady growth. Many LPS prefer indirect or slightly shaded areas to avoid tissue stress.

Flow: Moderate, indirect water movement is ideal. Gentle but consistent flow keeps polyps clean and extended without damaging their fleshy tissue.

Placement: Mid to lower rockwork or sandbed is often best. Allow ample space between colonies, as many LPS have long sweeper tentacles and can sting neighbors.

Water Quality: Stable parameters are key — maintain balanced alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium levels with low to moderate nutrients. Sudden changes can stress fleshy polyps.

Feeding: LPS benefit from targeted or occasional broadcast feeding of meaty or particulate foods to support faster growth and vibrant coloration.

Difficulty: Beginner to intermediate friendly — many LPS are hardy but appreciate consistent conditions and occasional feeding for best results.

Sustainability: Fully aquacultured, zero wild collection — responsibly grown and well adapted to aquarium life.

Disclaimer:
Corals on the pictures are not WYSIWYG, photos was made under different lighting (blue or white lights) and in different tank (our show of frag tanks). You will get coral size as described, shape and color could be slightly off due to shipping stress.
After shipping stress soft corals (Mushrooms, Cloves, all types of  Leathers) always will  look shrink and colorless, won't look as on photos. For them to recover and adjust to new environments they will need 3-7 days in low lights and flow. Specially for mushroom we recommend to keep they under 100PAR and less.
