General info about Blue Tip Frogspawn Euphyllia
In general, corals from the genus Euphyllia have long tentacles that may stretch out 2 to 4 inches and are usually extended out most of the time. When the polyps are retracted, you can clearly see that each corallite is completely separated from each other and is encased by its own wall.
For the Blue Tip Frogspawn Euphyllia, they are predominatly colored green with blue tips. This are the water parameters for cultivating Blue Tip Frogspawn Euphyllia:
- Calcium: 420 - 440 ppm
- Alkalinity: 2.86 - 3.93 MEQ/L (8 - 11 dKH)
- Phosphates: 0
- Magnesium: 1260 - 1350
- Strontium: 8 -10
- Temperature: 75° - 80° F (24° - 27° C)
- Salinity / Specific Gravity: 1.023 - 1.025
- pH: 8.1 - 8.4
