Indo Peach Hammer

About this coral

Indo Peach Hammer is an LPS “hammer coral” in the Euphyllia genus (Euphyllia spp.). In a reef aquarium, it’s prized for its fleshy tentacles and provides an active centerpiece display that typically extends feeding structures when conditions are suitable. Practical use: place it where it receives appropriate light and a steady, non-blasting current so it can open its tentacles and capture food.

Features:

• LPS Euphyllia hammer coral growth form with prominent, fleshy tentacles for a visually engaging reef focus
• General guidance for Euphyllia: moderate light supports healthy daily expansion and coloration display
• Medium water flow helps keep tentacles functioning without exposing the coral to constant direct blasting
• Often benefits from placement away from heavy sediment so tentacles remain clear for feeding
• Will generally capture suitable meaty foods from the water column as part of its diet
• Best used in mixed reef aquascapes where it has enough space to reduce contact stress with neighboring corals
