Details
Cycloseris plate corals are very closely related to Fungia sp. plate corals with some small skeletal differences. Its skeleton forms a cupped disc with ridges that radiate from a central oral opening. Cycloseris plate corals tend to have a more mound-like shape than the more common Fungia corals. These corals come in a variety of colors, usually green, pink, or purple. Short tentacles extend upward on the upper side of the animal.
These corals have a medium aggressiveness rating because they are quite mobile on an open surface, and can sting other corals that it may come into contact. Place this specimen on a gravel or rubble bottom in direct light, with a medium to low water movement.
