Sun Coral

The Sun Coral, also known as Tubastraea, is a vibrant and eye-catching coral species prized for its striking orange and yellow polyps. Unlike many other corals, Sun Corals do not rely on photosynthesis and prefer low-light environments, often thriving in shaded areas of the reef. They are non-photosynthetic and require regular feeding of meaty foods such as brine shrimp and mysis shrimp to maintain their health and vibrant colors. While they add a stunning visual appeal to marine aquariums, they need dedicated care and attention to ensure their specific nutritional needs are met.
