Neon Leptoseris: Electrify Your Reef with Radiant Glow

Add a splash of vibrant, captivating color to your marine aquarium with the stunning Neon Leptoseris. This encrusting coral offers mesmerizing fluorescence and unique plating growth.

Overview

The Neon Leptoseris (*Leptoseris* spp.) is a small polyp stony (SPS) coral renowned for its intense, often green, yellow, or orange, fluorescence under actinic lighting. It forms delicate, thin plating or encrusting structures that spread across rockwork, developing intricate ridges and ruffles over time. Its surface is covered in fine, shimmering polyps, creating a velvety appearance that adds texture and depth to your reef scape.

Care Level

Considered a moderately easy SPS coral, Leptoseris is more forgiving than many of its counterparts, making it a great introduction to the SPS world. It is generally peaceful but can extend short sweeper tentacles, so provide adequate space from neighboring corals. Stable water parameters are paramount for its health and vibrant coloration.

Tank Essentials

A minimum of 75 litres is recommended, though a 190+ litre aquarium provides greater stability for this healthy marine coral. Maintain a temperature of 23-27°C, pH 8.1-8.4, and salinity 1.024-1.026. Ensure moderate water flow to prevent detritus buildup and provide low to moderate lighting.

Diet

Primarily photosynthetic, the Neon Leptoseris gains most nutrition from its symbiotic zooxanthellae. Supplement with fine particulate coral foods like phytoplankton, amino acids, or powdered coral diets once or twice a week to boost growth and enhance its glowing coloration.
