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

The Yellow Jacket Octospawn is a vibrant coral known for its eye-catching yellow and green tentacles tipped with deep purple accents, creating a striking contrast in any reef aquarium. Its flowing, octopus-like tentacles add dynamic movement, making it an impressive centerpiece. This hardy coral thrives in moderate light and flow, making it a great choice for aquarists at any experience level. Octospawn is frogspawn’s eight-branched form — the same flowing Euphyllia movement, on heads that divide and frag cleanly. Its coloration and movement make it a strong addition to a mixed reef.

Care Guide
Frogspawn Coral (Euphyllia divisa) is a popular, hardy LPS with branching, grape-like polyp clusters that sway gracefully in the current. It thrives under low to moderate lighting and gentle, indirect flow, and grows quickly with regular feeding — just give it room, as its sweeper tentacles can sting neighboring corals.

Placement: Middle of the tank with gentle, indirect flow. Give 4-6 inches of clearance — sweeper tentacles can sting neighboring corals.
