[Euphyllia frogspawn]

The Euphyllia is a LPS genus that's widely admired for its beauty and adaptability in a wide range of aquarium conditions.

Here are some distinctive features of Euphyllia:

Appearance: Euphyllia can come in a variety of colors, including green, brown, pink, and yellow. Their unique appearance is due to their long, slender tentacles extending from their stalk-like calcium carbonate skeletons.
Habitat: These corals are originally from the Indo-Pacific coral reefs but are commonly cultivated in aquariums worldwide. They can thrive under moderate light and moderate water flow conditions.
Feeding: Euphyllia is a LPS coral that contains symbiotic zooxanthellae, photosynthetic organisms that provide them with some of their nutrition. However, they can also capture small planktonic organisms using their tentacles. Coral breeders often feed them with small pieces of fish meat or specialized coral food to ensure proper nutrition.
Reproduction: These corals can be reproduced through both fragmentation and sexual propagation. Fragmentation involves dividing a portion of the mother coral, which grows into a new individual. Sexual propagation involves collecting and fertilizing eggs and sperm to grow new corals in a controlled environment.
Maintenance: To keep a Euphyllia happy and healthy in your aquarium, it's important to maintain stable water parameters, including water temperature, water quality, and nutrient concentration. Ensuring they have enough space to extend their tentacles without competing with other corals is also important.
Compatibility: These corals are generally compatible with some species of hard corals. However, it's important to prevent them from being touched by aggressive corals or fish that could damage them.

Euphyllia are highly prized by marine aquarium enthusiasts for their unique beauty and relatively easy care. With the right attention, they can thrive and grow in a home aquarium, adding to the beauty and biodiversity of the simulated underwater environment.

Your title is a torch coral, your description is a hammer coral, and your picture is a frogspawn coral.

Is this a test or something?

You're actually right, the difference between frogspawn and glabrescens is not so clear here. They are often presented with the same name. As we left thinking about the Euphyllia ancora and then we put up another picture.

Congratulations on your knowledge about Euphyllia.

My favorite coral because angelfish find them not the best tasting. The attached picture is when I had time to take care of my coral, now I let them fend for themselves. Clownfish love to host in frogspawn which is an added feature
