Corals
Fungia, Heliofungia, and Cycloseris are among the most well-known LPS corals (Large Polyp Stony Corals) in marine aquaristics. They are particularly suitable for placement on the sand bed and are also some of the easiest LPS corals to care for, making them perfect for beginners and experienced aquarists alike.
Fungia
Fungia is recognized for its flat, round body with radial tentacles. This coral adapts flexibly to various light and water flow conditions. Fungia prefers moderate lighting and gentle to moderate water flow, which softly moves its polyps. It is easy to care for and only requires occasional feeding with fine particulate food, as it gains most of its energy through photosynthesis.
Heliofungia
Heliofungia differs from Fungia by its long, tentacle-like polyps, which resemble a sea anemone. It prefers moderate to strong lighting and gentle water flow to protect its delicate tentacles. Heliofungia is slightly more demanding to care for and is sensitive to changes in water parameters. It should be regularly fed with plankton or small food particles to maintain its vibrant colors and health.
Cycloseris
Cycloseris resembles Fungia in its disk-like structure but has a more compact shape and shorter tentacles. It prefers moderate lighting and gentle water flow. Cycloseris is extremely easy to care for and highly adaptable, making it ideal for beginners. It thrives well on sand beds and only needs occasional feeding with fine plankton as a dietary supplement.
Conclusion
Fungia, Heliofungia, and Cycloseris are ideal LPS corals for marine aquariums. With their vibrant colors and unique tentacle structures, they bring movement and variety to any reef aquarium. Thanks to their different care requirements, they provide exciting challenges and are an attractive addition to the sand bed in the aquarium.
