Soft Corals
Vibrant, Resilient & Ideal for Reef Aquariums
Soft corals are among the most captivating and beginner-friendly inhabitants of marine aquariums. With their flowing polyps, diverse colours, and low-maintenance needs, they offer both beauty and ease of care. As members of the Alcyonacea order, soft corals include popular species like leather corals, zoanthids, and star polyps, each contributing unique textures and hues to your reef setup.
Diverse & Colourful Varieties
Soft corals encompass a wide range of species, from the delicate polyps of zoanthids to the leathery textures of toadstools and the vibrant mats of star polyps. Their diverse forms and colours can transform any aquarium into a dynamic and visually appealing ecosystem.
Low-Maintenance Care
Compared to their hard coral counterparts, soft corals are more forgiving and easier to care for. They thrive in stable water conditions and can tolerate a range of lighting and flow parameters, making them suitable for both novice and experienced aquarists. Regular water changes and occasional feeding can support their health and growth.
Ecological Benefits
Beyond their aesthetic appeal, soft corals play a vital role in the reef ecosystem. They provide shelter and food for various marine species, contribute to the complexity of the reef structure, and can help maintain water quality by filtering particles from the water column.
