Plate Corals For Sale

Plate Corals for Reef Aquariums

Plate corals are popular large-polyp stony (LPS) corals known for their round, disk-shaped skeletons, colorful tissue, and distinctive tentacles. Commonly sold as Fungia corals, these free-living corals come in a variety of colors, including neon green, orange, blue, red, and rainbow combinations.

Plate Coral Care

Plate corals are generally best kept on the sand bed, where they have room to expand without rubbing against nearby rocks or corals. Provide moderate lighting and low to moderate, indirect water flow. Avoid strong, direct flow that can cause tissue irritation or move the coral across the substrate.

Care Level: Moderate
Lighting: Moderate
Water Flow: Low to Moderate
Placement: Sand bed

Individual requirements can vary by species and aquarium conditions.

Fungia Coral Identification

Plate corals sold in the aquarium trade may belong to several related genera, including Fungia, Cycloseris, and Heliofungia. Although these corals can share a circular appearance, they differ in skeletal structure, tentacle length, and growth characteristics.

When choosing a plate coral, consider its coloration, overall size, tentacle appearance, and available space in your aquarium.
