The red and green Symphyllia coral looks vibrant in my tank. I started with moderate lighting and slowly increased it over two months. It has grown well and responds to regular feeding. Water parameters are stable and I maintain good flow. A solid choice for intermediate reef keepers.

Installed the coral in a moderate-light setup. It settled in well after a few weeks. I use broadcast feeding twice a week and have noticed color development. Not the fastest grower, but it’s healthy and stable.

Great color contrast between red and green sections. I followed the care guide carefully—started with moderate light and increased slowly. The coral is active and shows signs of growth after a month. Easy to maintain with proper water conditions.
