Watermelon Mushroom Colony Discosoma

The Watermelon Mushroom Colony Discosoma is a vibrant and unique soft coral that originates from the Indo-Pacific region. These mushroom-like corals form colonies that can grow up to several inches in diameter, with individual polyps displaying a range of colors from green to pink and red, resembling a watermelon. Watermelon Mushrooms are filter feeders, capturing plankton and other small particles from the water column. They are generally peaceful and can be kept with a variety of other reef-safe fish and invertebrates. However, they may compete for space with other fast-growing corals, so care should be taken when selecting tank mates. These corals are recommended for intermediate to advanced aquarists, as they require stable water parameters, including a pH of 8.1-8.4, temperature of 72-82°F, and moderate water flow. Proper lighting, ranging from medium to low, is also crucial for their growth and coloration. With the right conditions and care, Watermelon Mushroom Colonies can thrive and add a vibrant, eye-catching element to any reef aquarium.
