Species Name: Rhodactis indosinensis
Common Name: Elephant Ear Mushroom, Coral Anemone
Range:
Central Indo-Pacific Ocean to Australia
Natural Environment:
Inhabits reef slopes and reef shallows, sometimes where the nutrient level is more concentrated, i.e., bays, lagoons, and boat channels
General Husbandry:
Sometimes called "Elephant Ear Mushroom Corals" because of their larger size. Do well in a temperature range of about 72 - 83ºF (22 - 28ºC). Their low cost and maintenance requirements make them very popular with reef keepers. They can be fed small pieces of fish/shrimp flesh.
