Green-eyed Merulina Coral – Merulina sp.

Lettuce Corals (Merulina sp.) can vary greatly in shape and color. Color ranges from brown or gold to neon green, with new growth areas being lighter in color. The shape of the colony can be branching or flat and plate-like, or even both even within the same colony.

These corals grow best under high light to maintain their bright colors and should have moderate to high water flow. They are relatively unaggressive and are fairly hardy when properly kept in mature, stable aquariums.
