Information

Caulastrea are commonly referred to as either Candy Cane Corals or Trumpet Corals. They are a fast growing LPS Coral and can quickly form a large colony through fission where each polyp grows an additional mouth and then separates into two polyps. They are considered one of the more hardy corals making them beginner friendly.

Lighting

Candy canes do not require much in the way of lighting. Medium to low lighting is a safer bet than the possibility of overexposure under lighting that is too intense. They maintain consistent coloration regardless of the type of lighting provide

Water Flow

Moderate water movement is recommended for this coral. LPS like candy canes appreciate enough flow to bring them food and take away film and mucus on the coral, but it is important to not blast them too hard with flow. 

Feeding

Like many other LPS, candy cane corals can be fed a mix of meaty foods such as mysis or krill. Here at coralSLover we do not go out of our way to spot feed these corals, but it can be accomplished easily. Candy canes open up and extend feeding tentacles when they detect food in the water.
