Indo Creamscicle Frogspawn

About this coral

Indo Creamscicle Frogspawn is an LPS frogspawn coral sold under that exact shop name, typically kept for its extended, bubbly tentacles and the movement it brings to a reef aquarium. Frogspawn corals belong to the frogspawn/hammer group often sold as Euphyllia (commonly referred to as a frogspawn coral in the trade), and they’re used in mixed reefs where moderate light and thoughtfully directed flow help the polyps remain inflated.

Features:

• Best results typically come from moderate lighting with gentle to moderate, indirect flow (aim to avoid blasting the tentacles).
• Provide an area where the tentacles can extend freely, since flow that is too strong can cause retraction.
• While they get much of their energy from photosynthesis, they can also respond well to occasional target feeding with zooplankton/meaty foods.
• As the coral grows, it will consume calcium and alkalinity—plan for steady reef chemistry to support calcification.
• Give it physical space from nearby corals and other stinging species, since frogspawn can be aggressive in mixed-reef setups.

Specifications:

• Group: Frogspawn (Euphyllia-type) LPS coral
• Care level (general guidance): Intermediate (common hobby guidance for frogspawn/Euphyllia LPS)
• Light (general guidance): Moderate lighting; one care guide suggests ~150–250 PAR for frogspawn
• Water flow (general guidance): Gentle to moderate, indirect flow (indirect/random flow is generally preferred)
• Feeding (general guidance): Benefits from occasional target feeding with zooplankton/meaty foods
• Water chemistry consideration (general guidance): Consumes calcium and alkalinity as it grows; keep reef parameters stable
• Temperament / compatibility (general guidance): Can be aggressive toward nearby corals—space it accordingly
