Create an instant centerpiece with this stunning Large Hammer Garden Coral Colony. This established colony brings together beautiful coloration, flowing movement and the unmistakable appearance of Hammer Coral in one impressive showpiece.

This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the product photographs is the exact specimen you will receive.

Its fleshy, hammer-shaped polyps expand beautifully under proper conditions and sway gently with the aquarium’s current. This colony is an excellent choice for reef keepers looking to add the appearance of a mature coral garden without waiting for individual frags to grow together.
