Rainbow Blasto

Rainbow Blasto

Transform Your Tank with Living Gemstones of the Reef

Looking for a coral that stops people mid-step? The Rainbow Blastomussa is one of the most visually striking LPS corals available in the hobby — its bold, contrasting rings of red, green, orange, and purple radiate under reef lighting in a way that photographs simply cannot do justice. Ethically sourced and carefully selected, this is the kind of specimen collectors wait for.

Blastomussa wellsi is a slow, steady grower that gradually colonies outward, making each new polyp head feel like a small victory. Individual polyps expand dramatically at night and during feeding, developing a soft, cushioned presence that adds wonderful texture to any saltwater aquarium layout. Rewarding for beginners advancing their skills, and deeply satisfying for experienced reefers building a statement display.
