Transform your aquarium into a dynamic, flowing landscape with our brilliant Green Star Polyp (GSP) Soft Coral. A favorite among reef enthusiasts for its dazzling neon green color and ease of care, GSP is the perfect coral to start or expand your collection. It grows as a lush mat of tiny, star-shaped polyps that sway hypnotically in the current, creating a stunning “living carpet” effect. At MyTinyFins LLC, we offer healthy, ready-to-grow frags that will bring instant life to your tank.
You will receive one GSP frag attached to a plug, ready for easy placement in your aquarium. Why Choose Green Star Polyps?
- Extremely Beginner-Friendly: GSP is famously hardy and one of the most forgiving corals, making it an excellent choice for those new to the reef-keeping hobby.
- Incredible Color: The polyps boast a fluorescent neon green that pops under actinic lighting, providing a spectacular visual centerpiece.
- Fast Growing: This is a fast-growing encrusting coral, meaning it will quickly cover rocks or the back glass of your tank, adding a mature look to your reef in no time.
Fascinating Facts About GSP:
- Scientific Name: Known as Pachyclavularia violacea, the “violacea” part of its name refers to the violet or purple color of the rubbery mat (stolon) that connects the individual polyps.
- Natural Defense: GSP can retract its polyps completely into the mat when it feels threatened or during its nightly cycle, showing only the purple base.
- Wide Distribution: This coral is native to the Indo-Pacific Ocean, where it grows in a variety of reef environments, contributing to its adaptability in home aquariums.
Placement & Care Tips:
- Lighting: GSP is highly adaptable and thrives in a wide range of lighting conditions, from low to high. It will show its best color and polyp extension under moderate to high lighting (PAR 150-300).
- Water Flow: It loves moderate to strong water flow. Good flow will keep the polyps clean of debris and encourage them to extend fully, creating beautiful movement.
- Placement – Important!: GSP is an encrusting coral and a very aggressive grower. It will cover any surface it touches, including equipment and other corals. To control its spread, it is highly recommended to place your GSP frag on an isolated rock island on your sand bed or glue it to the back glass of your aquarium where it can create a living backdrop without smothering your rockwork.
- Tank Parameters: Maintain stable reef conditions: temperature 72-78°F, salinity 1.023-1.025. Its hardiness makes it tolerant of minor fluctuations.
