Vibrant John Deere Leptastrea: A Jewel for Your Reef Tank!

Discover the striking beauty of the ‘John Deere’ Leptastrea, a fast-growing, encrusting coral prized for its vivid green and yellow coloration.

Overview

The ‘John Deere’ Leptastrea is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral, named for its iconic green and yellow hues that create a stunning visual contrast. This hardy species features an encrusting growth pattern, gradually colonizing rockwork and adding unique texture to your aquarium. Leptastrea corals are known for their resilience and moderate growth, making them a rewarding addition for aquarists seeking a touch of vibrant personality in their reef setup. This particular morph is a favourite for its eye-catching coloration.

Care Level

Beginner to intermediate. While generally hardy and forgiving, Leptastrea corals, especially vibrant morphs like the ‘John Deere’, thrive best in stable, mature reef aquariums. They are semi-aggressive and should be provided with adequate spacing from other corals to prevent stinging.

Tank Essentials

A minimum tank size of 75 litres (20 gallons) is recommended. Maintain stable water parameters with a temperature of 23-27°C (74-80°F), a pH of 8.1-8.4, and salinity of 1.024-1.026. Moderate, indirect water flow is ideal to keep the coral clean without causing stress.

Diet

Leptastrea corals primarily obtain energy through photosynthesis but benefit greatly from targeted feeding. Offer small-particle foods such as phytoplankton, powdered coral foods, or mysis shrimp a few times a week, ideally at night when their polyps are extended.
