WYSIWYG Clove Polyp Coral Colony

The WYSIWYG Clove Polyp Coral Colony is a fast-growing soft coral that forms a swaying carpet of delicate, eight-tentacled polyps in vivid green. Its constant gentle motion and easy care make it a favorite for beginners and a beautiful way to soften rockwork — just plan ahead for its spreading habit. WYSIWYG means "what you see is what you get": the exact colony pictured is the one we’ll ship you.

Quick care overview

• Difficulty: Excellent for beginners — one of the easiest, fastest-growing corals.
• Lighting: Low to moderate; neon and green tones show best under a blue-heavy spectrum.
• Flow: Moderate and random — keeps the polyps clean and swaying.
• Placement: On rock, low to mid. Consider an isolated “island” so it can’t creep onto neighbors.
• Feeding: Primarily photosynthetic — feeding is optional and not needed for health.
• Parameters: 76–78°F, salinity 1.025, Alk 8–11 dKH; happy in tanks that aren’t kept ultra-sterile.
