This White Polyp Toadstool soft coral is one of my oldest AND one of my personal favorites! Though called a "white polyp" because the polyps are truly a brilliant white under reef daylight, the polyps actually glow green under actinic blue lighting! I also love how it ruffles it's cap making it look like a flowery pillow. LOVES the light so mid to upper placement is where it's happiest. Very tolerant of different water flow streams.
The main pic is a Parent of this soft coral & smaller specimen images are sample babies unless a WYSIWYG is offered & selected. Baby White Polyp Toadstool soft corals are mounted to real live rock unless otherwise noted.

Soft Coral Color Guide: Example - Base color "Green"
"Green" = shows it's green color mostly under actinic blue lighting
Neon "Green" = glows green under actinic blue lighting
Ultra "Green" = bright or deep green under full daylights!
Metallic = the color has a metallic sheen to it.
Tank raised soft corals are much easier to keep than wild soft corals, maricultured soft corals and hard corals. My aquacultured tank raised soft corals are grown from parent soft corals grown on location so are truly acclimated to thrive in an enclosed environment - your tank. Remember, like wild soft corals, aquacultured tank raised soft corals offer many benefits to reef fish like hiding places or perches and even sleep spots!
Sensational soft corals add beautiful form, color and movement to a reef tank - soft coral flowers in your "ocean garden"!!
