Add a brilliant pop of fluorescent green to your reef with the ORA Aquacultured Emerald Green Mushroom Coral. Under actinic and blue lighting, its vibrant coloration comes alive with an eye-catching glow that makes it stand out beautifully against live rock.

Emerald Green Mushrooms are hardy, adaptable, and easy to maintain, making them an excellent choice for beginners while remaining attractive enough for established reef displays. With proper conditions, they can reproduce and gradually form a colorful colony across nearby rockwork.

This coral prefers low to moderate lighting with gentle, indirect water movement. Excessive flow may prevent the mushroom from fully expanding.

Each coral is aquacultured by ORA and ships as an individual mushroom attached to a small rock.
