Expect saturated reds, oranges, greens or a blend of all three in a rainbow pattern. A fully puffed, evenly rounded mantle is the sign of a happy coral; if it looks deflated, gapes open or the tissue appears torn, that points to stress, too much light, or excessive water movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNatural Habitat\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the wild, Acanthophyllia deshayesiana lives unattached on soft sand or sediment in the calmer, deeper reaches of Indo-Pacific reefs, away from bright light and strong currents. AA27 should be kept the same way at home: settled onto the sandbed in a quiet, dimly lit corner of the tank where flow is gentle rather than direct.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nick's Aquarium Oceanarium Terrarium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55232733446435,"sku":"AA2781","price":395.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/nicksaquariumoceanariumterrarium.com.au\/products\/acanthophyllia-aa27-acanthophyllia-deshayesiana","provider":"Nicks Aquarium Oceanarium Terrarium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
