Typical needs for this coral type. Ask us if you're unsure.
Transform Your Tank with a Psychedelic Branching Centerpiece
Looking for a coral that stops the scroll? The Willy Wonka Hammer is one of the most visually electric Euphyllia variants in the hobby — its neon-tipped, flowing tentacles cycle through otherworldly hues of green, purple, and gold that seem to shift under different spectrum lighting. This is not a coral you'll find at a big-box retailer. As a large branching colony, it arrives as an established, multi-head specimen ready to become the undisputed focal point of your reef tank.
Branching Hammer corals grow outward in an impressive arching spread, and a large colony of this caliber delivers immediate visual impact while continuing to branch and multiply over time. The sweeping tentacle motion adds a mesmerizing rhythmic flow to any saltwater aquarium, and experienced aquarists will appreciate just how interactive and personality-rich this species becomes as it settles into its environment. Placing it with adequate space to expand will reward you with one of the most dynamic long-term displays in the reef-keeping hobby.
