The Red Finger Gorgonian, also known as the Diodogorgia nodulifera, is a stunning soft coral that is highly sought after by reef hobbyists. As its name suggests, this gorgonian coral has a red or reddish-orange coloration that makes a striking visual impact in any aquarium. The Red Finger Gorgonian has a branching shape, and its numerous branches can form a beautiful and intricate network of coral. This coral is a filter feeder, and as such, it requires moderate to strong water flow to bring it a steady supply of food. It also requires regular supplementation of planktonic foods such as phytoplankton and zooplankton to thrive. The Red Finger Gorgonian is relatively hardy and can adapt to a variety of lighting conditions, although it generally prefers moderate to high light levels. It is important to note that the Red Finger Gorgonian is a delicate coral that can be easily damaged by excessive handling or rough water flow. Therefore, it is best to place this coral in an area of the aquarium with gentle water flow and avoid placing it near any aggressive or stinging corals. With proper care and attention, the Red Finger Gorgonian can be a beautiful and rewarding addition to any reef aquarium.

Australian Doughnut Coral
Call for PriceThe Australian Doughnut Coral (Acanthophyllia deshayesiana) is a large polyp stony coral native to the Indo-Pacific region, including the Great Barrier Reef. It is named for its circular shape and often brightly colored fleshy tissue. The coral has a distinctive appearance due to its large corallites (the skeletal cups that house the polyps) which are separated by pronounced walls. The coral’s polyps extend during the day to feed on zooplankton and retract at night. The Australian Doughnut Coral is relatively hardy and can thrive in a range of lighting and flow conditions, making it a popular choice for reef aquaria. However, it can be sensitive to high levels of nitrates and phosphates, and requires calcium and alkalinity supplementation for optimal growth.
