Overview
The Euphyllia “Rose Aurora” Yaeyamaensis Coral brings a soft, romantic touch to your reef aquarium. Its delicate pale green tentacles, adorned with soft pink tips, create a serene and graceful display that evokes the warmth of a rose at dawn. The flowing polyps move fluidly in the current, adding both beauty and tranquility to your tank.

Native to the Indo-Pacific, particularly the Yaeyama Islands, the Rose Aurora thrives in environments with moderate lighting and water flow, mirroring the conditions of its natural reef habitat.

Care & Feeding
The Rose Aurora Yaeyamaensis Coral is primarily photosynthetic, relying on its symbiotic zooxanthellae for most of its nutrition. However, to enhance its growth and vibrant pink tips, feeding it small meaty foods like mysis shrimp or brine shrimp can be beneficial.

Maintaining stable water conditions is essential to preserving its delicate beauty. Proper calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity levels are crucial for strong skeletal development, while keeping nitrate and phosphate levels low will prevent algae from dulling its vivid colors.

Optimal Parameters

• Alkalinity (dKH): 8-12
• Calcium (Ca): 400-450 ppm
• Magnesium (Mg): 1250-1350 ppm
• Nitrate (NO3): 1-10 ppm
• Phosphate (PO4): 0.01-0.05 ppm

Placement
Position the Rose Aurora Yaeyamaensis Coral in the bottom to middle zones of your aquarium. Ensure enough space for its tentacles to flow freely without interference from neighboring corals, as it has a semi-aggressive nature.

Enhance your reef with the Euphyllia “Rose Aurora” Yaeyamaensis Coral, a delicate yet striking addition that combines soft green and pink hues, creating a serene and captivating presence in your aquatic landscape.
