Orange Leptastrea #2

£25.00

Orange Leptastrea frag mounted on a 38x38mm tile. The frag you see if the frag you will receive.

This Golden Orange Leptastrea brings a warm burst of colour to the reef, with vivid orange-gold polyps set amongst contrasting muted green and olive tones. Under blue lighting, the orange centres become particularly bright, giving the colony a fiery appearance without losing the finer detail between each corallite.

Leptastrea grows by encrusting over the surface beneath it, making this piece ideal for adding colour to exposed rockwork or creating a dedicated encrusting coral area. Once established, it can steadily develop into a dense, colourful colony.
