The Australian Heliofungia Long Tentacle Plate is one of the most visually arresting solitary corals available in the hobby today. This particular variant brings an electric neon coloration — intensified by its Australian origin — that few other LPS corals can rival under reef lighting. Large, flowing tentacles extend dramatically during feeding and throughout the day, giving this specimen a presence that commands attention in any marine aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHeliofungia are free-living plate corals, meaning they don't attach to rockwork — they rest directly on a sandy substrate and will slowly reposition themselves if conditions aren't to their liking. That mobility, combined with their bold personality and active feeding response, makes them one of the most engaging and rewarding large-polyp corals to keep. With stable parameters and regular target feeding, this coral grows quickly and intensifies in color over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQUICK STATS \u0026amp; CARE GUIDE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neon Aussie Long Tentacle Plate Coral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium–Large (approx. 4–6 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive — long tentacles can sting neighboring corals; allow generous spacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Photosynthetic (Zooxanthellae) and carnivorous; target feed 2–3x per week with meaty foods such as mysis, silversides, or LPS pellets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, with caution — keep away from adjacent corals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Temp 76–80°F | Salinity 1.025–1.026 | pH 8.1–8.3 | Alkalinity 8–11 dKH | Calcium 400–450 ppm | Moderate flow, moderate to high lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHY BUY FROM THE CORAL BOUTIQUE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery specimen from The Coral Boutique is ethically sourced, fully quarantined, and carefully conditioned in our Miami facility before it ever ships — so you receive a healthy, acclimated coral that's already responding well to target feeding and thriving under reef lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Coral Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54550924296467,"sku":null,"price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/3647\/2595\/files\/FullSizeRender_17a797b2-efa9-4598-955f-11a1ab10df65.jpg?v=1786155384","url":"https:\/\/thecoralboutique.com\/products\/neon-aussie-heliofungia-long-tentacle-plate","provider":"The Coral Boutique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
