Blastomussa wellsi – Green Morph

Add depth and vibrant colour to your reef with the Blastomussa wellsi Green Morph. Known for its fleshy polyps and radiant colours, this LPS coral is an aquarist’s favourite for both ease of care and its striking, flower-like appearance.

🌊 Appearance & Growth
Blastomussa wellsi forms colonies of fleshy polyps that resemble miniature blossoms, each with a bold green centre surrounded by darker contrasting rims. Under actinic or blue lighting, the polyps glow intensely, adding a dramatic pop of colour to the reefscape. Colonies grow into rounded clusters, making them an ideal feature coral for mid-level placement.

✨ Key Benefits at a Glance:

• ✔️ Glowing Green Centres – Neon colouration stands out under reef lighting.

• ✔️ Flower-Like Polyps – Adds delicate texture and elegance to the aquarium.

• ✔️ Moderate Growth – Expands steadily into attractive rounded colonies.

• ✔️ Peaceful Temperament – Less aggressive than many LPS, making placement easier.

• ✔️ Beginner to Intermediate – Hardy coral suitable for a range of reef keepers.

🐠 Placement & Compatibility
Place Blastomussa in areas with low to moderate flow so its polyps can extend fully without tissue stress. It is relatively peaceful compared to other LPS, but still requires some space from aggressive neighbours. Ideal for mid to lower rockwork, where its radiant colours can be appreciated.

💡 Lighting Requirements
Prefers low to moderate lighting. Excessive light can cause bleaching or tissue recession. Under actinic light, its neon green centres fluoresce, becoming a highlight of the tank.

🌊 Water Parameters:

• Temperature: 24–27°C

• Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG

• pH: 8.1–8.4

• Alkalinity: 8–12 dKH

• Calcium: 400–450 ppm

• Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm

🍤 Feeding Recommendations
Although photosynthetic, Blastomussa benefits from target feeding with mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and reef roids 2–3 times weekly. Feeding enhances growth, polyp expansion, and colour vibrancy.

🐟 Tank Mates
Well-suited to peaceful reef setups. Works beautifully in mixed LPS gardens and pairs well with soft corals and reef-safe fish. Avoid housing it too close to highly aggressive corals.

✨ Why Add Blastomussa?
Its balance of beauty, hardiness, and peaceful nature makes Blastomussa wellsi Green a versatile coral that thrives in many aquariums. Its radiant glow and unique polyp structure provide lasting appeal.

👉 Add the Blastomussa wellsi – Green Morph to your reef and enjoy a coral that delivers elegance, colour, and easy growth.
