The Red Mushroom Coral, Actinodiscus sp.., feature a vibrant red color and resembles what we think of as a terrestrial mushroom. Different from many corals, Mushroom Corals require less light. Some Mushrooms are capable of absorbing nutrients directly from the water column and can be voracious and aggressive eaters even devouring small fish at times. It is advised to leave plenty of space between it and other corals as well. In general, Mushroom Corals requires low to moderate water flow and low to moderate lighting and to be held in a reef aquarium. 
These corals can propagate quite quickly in the home aquarium so be prepared with plenty of space for it to grow. These corals look especially amazing under actinic lighting so keep this in mind while preparing your tank. Sometimes Mushroom Corals will close up after being introduced to the tank but have patience as they will reopen when they have acclimatized. Mushroom Corals are generally easy to care for making them great additions to any type of home aquarium and great for beginner and expert aquarists alike. 

A cute, little, lively Mushroom Coral that brings a lot of character to your tank. Seems to play well with others and makes a welcome addition while being an easy keeper.
