Euphyllia ancora (Hammer Coral or Anchor Coral) is a beginner-friendly large polyp stony (LPS) coral known for its hammer- or anchor-shaped tentacles that gently sway in water flow. This coral is a great addition to any reef tank.
Care in Aquariums:
- Lighting: Low to Moderate.
- Water Flow: Low to Moderate.
- Placement: Middle to bottom of the tank. They have stinging tentacles and can be aggressive to nearby corals, making spacing important in aquariums.
- Feeding: Mostly photosynthetic, but it can also take meaty foods like mysis shrimp.
