Hammer Garden Coral Colony – WYSIWYG
Price: $249.99
Create an instant centerpiece in your reef aquarium with this beautiful Hammer Garden Coral Colony. Featuring multiple Hammer Coral colors growing together, this colony delivers incredible movement, contrasting coloration and the appearance of an established Euphyllia garden without waiting years for individual frags to grow.
Its fleshy, hammer-shaped tentacles gently sway with the water flow, making it a stunning choice for an LPS-focused reef or mixed-reef display.
This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the colony pictured is the exact specimen you will receive. No substitutions.
What Makes It a Hammer Garden?
A Hammer Garden combines multiple Hammer Coral color varieties into one coordinated colony. Unlike a standard single-color Hammer Coral, this piece provides greater visual contrast and the look of a mature Euphyllia display.
Coral Care
Coral Type: LPS Coral
Scientific Name: Euphyllia or Fimbriaphyllia species
Common Name: Hammer Coral Garden
Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Temperament: Semi-Aggressive
Lighting: Low to Moderate
Water Flow: Low to Moderate
Placement: Lower to Middle Area
Aquaculture: Aquacultured by SAQ Coral Farm
Provide gentle, indirect water movement that allows the tentacles to sway without being forcefully whipped or pressed against the coral’s skeleton.
Hammer Corals may extend sweeper tentacles, especially at night. Allow several inches of space between this colony and neighboring corals.
Recommended Water Parameters
Temperature: 75–80°F
Salinity: 1.024–1.026
pH: 8.1–8.4
Alkalinity: 8–12 dKH
Calcium: 400–450 ppm

Stable parameters are especially important for maintaining healthy tissue, polyp extension and skeletal growth.
Feeding
Hammer Corals receive much of their energy from reef lighting but can benefit from occasional feeding with appropriately sized coral foods, mysis shrimp or finely chopped marine foods.
Avoid placing oversized food directly onto the tentacles or overfeeding the colony.

You will receive the exact Hammer Garden Coral Colony shown in the product images. Egg-crate squares shown in the photographs measure approximately ¾ inch and may be used as a size reference.
