Aussie Metallic Blastomussa

Transform Your Tank with Australian Coral Rarity Worth Collecting

Looking for a show-stopping LPS that turns heads? The Aussie Metallic Blastomussa is one of the most sought-after wellsi morphs available to serious reef keepers, and genuine Australian specimens with this level of color saturation rarely surface on the market. Sourced directly from sustainable Australian collection zones, this piece carries the kind of provenance and vibrancy that separates a curated reef tank from an ordinary saltwater aquarium.

This specimen photographs with deep red polyps sitting over a neon green base, a striking contrast that makes it a natural focal point in any reef layout. Blastomussa wellsi are hardy, slow-growing corals that expand dramatically under appropriate conditions, putting on a full, lush display each evening. They are peaceful colony builders, making them ideal for aquarists who want an exotic marine species that rewards patience and consistent care without demanding expert-level maintenance.
