Add stunning colour and unique texture to your reef aquarium with the captivating Caulastrea furcata, a truly resilient and beautiful coral.

Overview

Also known as Candy Cane, Trumpet, or Bullseye coral, *Caulastrea furcata* forms colonies of striking, trumpet-shaped polyps. These soft-bodied polyps are anchored to a calcium carbonate skeleton, displaying vibrant colours ranging from greens and yellows to blues and browns, often with contrasting stripes. They are a type of Large Polyp Stony (LPS) coral, known for their generally peaceful nature and attractive appearance, making them a popular choice for both beginner and experienced reef keepers.

Care Level

Easy. *Caulastrea furcata* is a hardy LPS coral, forgiving of minor parameter fluctuations. Its generally peaceful temperament and short tentacles make it compatible with many other reef inhabitants, though it’s wise to provide some space.

Tank Essentials

A minimum tank size of 75 litres (20 gallons) is recommended. Maintain stable water parameters: pH 8.0–8.4, salinity 1.023–1.025, temperature 24–26°C (75–79°F), and low nitrates and phosphates. Moderate, indirect water flow and moderate lighting (PAR 80-150) are ideal.

Diet

While photosynthetic, *Caulastrea furcata* benefits from supplemental feeding of small, meaty foods like mysis shrimp or plankton when its feeding tentacles are extended, typically at night.
