Lime Green Candy Cane
Trumpet corals (Caulastrea sp.), also known as candy cane corals, are hardy, beginner-friendly LPS corals requiring moderate lighting and low-to-moderate flow. Place them on the sandbed or lower rockwork, providing space to avoid stinging neighbors. Feeding of meaty foods (mysis shrimp) boosting growth.Â
Lighting: Moderate intensity. Avoid excessive, direct light which can cause bleaching.
Flow: Low to moderate flow is ideal, allowing polyps to expand fully.
Feeding: While photosynthetic, they benefit greatly from weekly, target-feeding with mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, or LPS-specific pellets. They often extend feeding tentacles at night.
Maintenance & Growth: They are generally peaceful but can sting nearby corals with sweeper tentacles. They have a moderate growth rate.Â
Acclimation: Ensure they are properly acclimated to lighting to avoid stress.
