Ultra Aussie Pink Tip Elegance

Ultra Aussie Pink Tip Elegance Coral

Transform Your Tank with Australian Elegance That Commands Attention

Looking for a true showstopper from the Pacific... The Ultra Aussie Pink Tip Elegance (Catalaphyllia jardinei) is one of the most visually striking large polyp stony corals available in the hobby today. Sourced from Australian waters, this variant is prized for its vivid pink-tipped tentacles that fluoresce brilliantly under reef lighting — a step above the more common Indo-Pacific specimens. Demand consistently outpaces supply, making this a genuine opportunity for serious collectors.

Elegance corals have a deserved reputation for dramatic personality — their tentacles extend beautifully during feeding, creating a mesmerizing, anemone-like presence that fills open sandbed space with living sculpture. Given stable water parameters and a spot on the sandbed away from direct flow, this species rewards patient aquarists with steady, impressive growth and long-term hardiness. It's a centerpiece specimen that earns its real estate in any mature reef tank.
