Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.
Yellow Polyps are an ideal beginner coral with bright yellow coloration that is bound to stand out in any reef aquarium. They are very hardy, grow quickly and can live in just about every environment. Cautionary notes are few with these corals, but hobbyists should take care not to place Yellow Polyps too close to other sessile invertebrates as the polyps can outgrow them, and like many corals, these have the ability to sting other polyps and corals. Due to the polyps physical likeness to Aptasia anenome, it is not recommended to include in tanks with peppermint shrimp, as the shrimp may make a snack out of them. Given supplemented feedings, they can thrive in very low light placements. When placed in moderate light scenarios, they can live without any direct feeding, but will still benefit from light supplemented feedings. Flow should be low to moderate but never direct.
- - Provide an aquarium placement with low to moderate lighting and moderate water flow
- - For continued health, supplement with planktonic foods
- - Cannot tolerate copper medications
- - Great beginner coral
- - Reef safe

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
