Hallucinations Paly Diet & Nutrition
In the wild, Hallucinations Paly has developed a symbiotic feeding relationship with marine algae called zooxanthellae. But in captivity, you have to feed them with nanoplankton or dissolved organics.
Fragging / Propagating Hallucinations Paly
A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating Hallucinations Paly. They should be set in the middle or top part of the tank where they will receive the most amount of light.
Flow / Lighting Requirements for Hallucinations Paly
Hallucinations Paly requires strong lighting and moderate waterflow.
Parasites & Diseases that Affect Hallucinations Paly
While the Hallucinations Paly are easy to maintain, you have to be alert for filamentous algae that can overgrow and smother their polyps. They are also prone to box snail which feeds on them, so you need to remove this particular snail from the tank. You also have to look out for large crustaceans and fish like angelfish and butterflyfish that nibbles on their tentacles.
Hallucinations Paly Origin
Hallucinations Paly are abundant and can be found in the waters of the Indo-Pacific Ocean.
Caution Should be Taken with Hallucinations Paly
Hallucinations Paly are known to posses high levels of palytoxin and vibrio bacteria especially in their mucus. So, you need to wear gloves in handling them.
How to Acclimate Hallucinations Paly
Hallucinations Paly are purely marine. So, therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 specific gravity.
Stinging Tentacles on Hallucinations Paly
Since the Hallucinations Paly contains toxins and bateria, you have give them ample space so that they cannot sting other coral species.

Hallucinations Paly | Palythoa | Zoanthidae | Palythoa sp | In general, corals coming from the genus Palythoa are classified as zoanthids with colonies that are embedded hard in the substrate and is often covered by its protruding polyps. Each polyp has an oral disc or mouth that is flat in shape and surrounded by a fringe of tentacles.
For the Hallucinations Paly, they are predominantly colored blue and violet with green tentacles and white mouth. This are the water paramaters in cultivating Hallucinations Paly:
