Rainbow Chinata

Details

Description

Chinata corals, also known as Leptoseris corals, are a type of small polyp stony (SPS) coral found primarily in the Indo-Pacific region. They are prized by reef enthusiasts for their unique, plate-like growth pattern and striking coloration. Chinata corals have a smooth, encrusting structure, often forming delicate, overlapping plates that can range from vivid oranges and yellows to deep blues and purples. These corals are relatively easy to care for and can thrive under moderate lighting and flow conditions, making them a popular choice for reef aquariums. Their slow, spreading growth adds texture and depth to any coral display.

Notes from the King:

“Chinata corals are fairly uncommon in the hobby”
