The WWC Stellaria Chalice (Echinophyllia sp. / Oxypora sp.) is a legendary signature strain lineaged by World Wide Corals, celebrated as one of the most vibrant, high-contrast chalices in the entire reef hobby. Famed for its celestial appearance, this showstopping piece features a deep cosmic base tissue—ranging from rich violet-purple to dark teal—speckled with swirling streaks of metallic gold, orange, and neon-green, all surrounding large, raised corallite eyes that glow in intense electric yellow-orange or pink.
Coloration: Deep purple-to-teal tissue base marbled with vivid streaks of gold, orange, and metallic green, studded with brilliant electric yellow-orange or pink corallite eyes.
Growth Pattern: Encrusting and Plating (forms thick, skeletal plates with heavily textured, ridged tissue that encrusts over plugs before spreading out horizontally). Sold as a frag on a 0.5 – 1 inch frag plug.
Lighting: Low to Moderate (PAR 75–125).
Water Flow: Low to Moderate (Gentle, indirect sweeping current).
Feeding: LPS prey-capturing; extends delicate sweeper and feeding tentacles after lights-out to capture micro-plankton, liquid aminos, and fine particulate feeds.
Aggressiveness: Aggressive (produces long, transparent nocturnal sweeper tentacles that will sting nearby corals).
Care Level: Moderate (Requires stable parameters, low PAR, and careful acclimation to preserve its intricate color streaks).
