Lighting: Low to moderate lighting is generally sufficient. Soft corals thrive under a range of conditions, with many showing their best coloration under balanced or slightly blue spectrum lighting.
Flow: Moderate, indirect water movement helps keep tissue clean and encourages natural swaying motion. Avoid overly strong flow that can cause the polyps to retract or tear.
Placement: Flexible placement — mid to lower rockwork or areas with steady but gentle flow work best. Many soft corals can adapt well to different areas of the tank as they grow and spread.
Water Quality: Stable, clean water with moderate nutrients supports healthy growth. Soft corals are often more forgiving than SPS or LPS but still benefit from regular maintenance and stability.
Feeding: Primarily photosynthetic, but may benefit from occasional broadcast feeding of fine particulate foods to support faster growth and polyp extension.
Difficulty: Beginner friendly and adaptable, making them excellent starter corals. They can thrive in a wide range of reef conditions with consistent care.
Sustainability: Fully aquacultured, zero wild collection — responsibly propagated for long-term aquarium success.
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.
