The $10 Box & Handling Fee is charged per box, not per coral. It covers the insulated box, heat or ice packs and the time it takes to pack live coral safely. UPS Next Day Air is one flat livestock shipping charge per order, the carrier cost of getting it out of Key West alive. A box typically holds around five small frags, so adding compatible corals to the same shipment usually will not add another box fee or change the shipping charge. Larger colonies, species that cannot share water, or extreme weather can require a second box. Orders with $349 or more in qualifying livestock ship free.

Florida: $30 UPS Next Day Air livestock shipping. Qualifying Florida livestock orders under 6 lb ship UPS Next Day Air for a flat $30, plus the $10 Box & Handling Fee. Heavier or mixed shipments use our standard UPS Next Day Air rate. Orders with $349 or more in qualifying livestock ship free.

Livestock ships UPS Next Day Air on Tuesdays and Wednesdays so nothing sits in a facility over a weekend. We ship livestock within the continental U.S. only. We do not ship to Alaska or Hawaii.

Description

This is one of the most visually striking plate corals we have ever offered. The contrast between the neon green and hot pink is jaw-dropping — a truly rare color combination that makes this piece an instant centerpiece in any reef display.

Plate corals are unique in the LPS world — they are free-living, meaning they are not attached to rock and can actually move across the sandbed on their own. They are surprisingly hardy, easy to keep, and one of the most rewarding corals to target feed. This Conditioned in our Key West systems specimen has been grown right here at our Florida Keys facility and is confirmed healthy, fully extended, and actively feeding before being offered for sale.

Care Requirements:

  • Care level: Easy to Moderate
  • Lighting: 100–200 PAR
  • Flow: Low to moderate, indirect flow preferred
  • Placement: Sandbed only — plate corals are free-living and should never be placed on rockwork
  • Feeding: Benefits from target feeding meaty foods (mysis, silversides, krill) 2-3x weekly
  • Water parameters: Stable reef parameters (Ca 380-450, Alk 8-12 dKH, Mg 1250-1350)
  • Note: Free-living coral — will move around the sandbed on its own to find its preferred spot

Care Guide
Plate corals are free-living LPS that sit directly on the sand bed rather than attaching to rock. They prefer moderate lighting and gentle flow, and will inflate their tissue substantially during the day to capture light and food. Target-feed meaty foods weekly for best coloration and growth, and keep them clear of sediment buildup.

Water Flow: Low
Lighting: Medium
Feeding: Medium

Placement: Open sandbed — this is a free-living coral and should not be glued down.
