Rainbow Lobophyllia

Lobophyllia, commonly known as “Lobo” or “Lobed Brain Corals,” are a popular choice among reef aquarium enthusiasts due to their vibrant colors and unique appearance. These large polyp stony (LPS) corals are relatively hardy and can adapt well to different tank conditions.

Here are some key points about Lobophyllia coral care:

• Placement: They should be placed on the sand bed or low in the tank to avoid direct, intense light.
• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting is ideal, typically between 30-150 PAR.
• Water Flow: They prefer low to moderate water flow.
• Feeding: Lobophyllia corals can benefit from occasional feeding with small meaty foods like mysis shrimp.
• Handling: Minimize touching to prevent damaging their soft tissue.

Lobophyllia corals are a great addition to any reef tank, providing a stunning visual appeal with their vibrant colors and intricate patterns.
