This is another online retail exotic coral acquisition by reef aquarist KLR/Kelby. The Galactic Inferno Lithophyllon was originally exported from Indonesia. The name of this coral is based on its blue star-like corallites, which occur within the bright orange base pigmentation. Kelby recommends moderate to low light along with strong water flow. In strong light and during stress the coral can lose its base orange pigmentation.
Steve Tyree is maintaining a seed section of this coral for Reeffarmers.com in a 130 gallon Raceway Gyre BiZonal system. This system is naturally filtered with a semi-cryptic zone and a reef flat exposed zone. In Steve's captive reef the coral is positioned to receive low light levels from a 400 watt 20,000 K Radium metal halide. The first edition fragment of this coral was sold to a private customer. List price is currently $70 for a small plating multi-eye fragment.
