Discover the striking Bullseye Mushroom coral, known for its captivating colors and easy-care nature, making it a fantastic choice for both new and experienced reef keepers.

Overview

The *Rhodactis inchoata*, commonly called the Bullseye Mushroom or Tonga Blue Mushroom, is a captivating corallimorph that adds a splash of vibrant color to any reef aquarium. Typically displaying shades of blue and violet, often with green margins and a red oral disc, this coral features unique, cauliflower-like papillae. These semi-aggressive corals can grow up to 8 cm (3 inches) in diameter and reproduce through longitudinal fission. They are known for their ability to slightly adjust their oral disc to influence water flow, directing food particles towards their mouths.

Care Level

This species is considered easy to care for, making it an excellent choice for beginner reef aquarists. While generally peaceful, it is semi-aggressive and requires adequate spacing from other corals to prevent potential damage. Its hardiness allows it to tolerate minor fluctuations in water parameters.

Tank Essentials

The Bullseye Mushroom thrives in a minimum tank size of 75 litres (20 gallons). It prefers low to moderate water flow and low to moderate lighting conditions. Stable water parameters are crucial, with an ideal pH range of 8.1–8.4 and a temperature between 24–26°C (75–79°F).

Diet

While primarily photosynthetic, deriving nutrients from symbiotic zooxanthellae, the *Rhodactis inchoata* will benefit from supplemental feedings of micro-plankton or other small, meaty foods suitable for filter-feeding invertebrates.
