Product overview

Pectinia corals are striking and unconventional Large Polyp Stony (LPS) specimens celebrated for their dramatic, lettuce-like growth forms featuring wild, jagged ridges, folded plates, and intricate lace-like structures. Ranging from stunning neon greens and vibrant yellows to rich purples and contrasting interior hues, this sculptural masterpiece delivers an extraordinary, organic aesthetic that instantly becomes an arresting conversation piece in any reef aquarium.

Care & husbandry guidelines

• To keep your Pectinia coral thriving and shield its delicate tissues from light stress, mount it carefully in the lower to middle zones of your aquascape under low to moderate illumination.
• Provide gentle, indirect water movement that effortlessly lifts detritus out of its intricate folds and valleys without battering the fragile skeletal walls.
• While they derive significant energy through photosynthesis via symbiotic zooxanthellae, they are enthusiastic eaters that respond wonderfully to routine target feedings of micro-plankton, rotifers, or fine meaty foods to accelerate growth and color saturation.
• Though visually stunning, Pectinia colonies possess extended sweeper tentacles and can be mildly aggressive toward close neighbors; ensure generous personal spacing is maintained around the colony to prevent chemical or physical turf wars in your display.

How We Photograph Our Corals

Every WYSIWYG photo on The Twin Corals Shop is captured directly in our systems using meticulous settings to ensure absolute transparency. Our goal is straightforward: show the coral precisely as it appears in a well-maintained reef aquarium — never heavily filtered or artificially saturated.

Our Camera & Optics

• Camera: Google Pixel 10 Pro
• Lens / Mode: Macro focus lens with manual setting mode
• ISO: 50
• White Balance: Custom set between 9,000K–10,000K

This setup allows us to highlight the finest structural details — from delicate polyp extension and skeletal texture to subtle gradient color shifts — without washing out the true look of the animal.

Lighting We Shoot Under

• Fixtures: Nicrew Hyperreef Gen2 (100W or 150W depending on the system)
• Photo Spectrum Mix: White 5% · Violet 60% · UV 60% · Deep Blue 50%

Color Accuracy & Your Tank

By utilizing a targeted custom white balance, our photos closely mirror what you will see under a clean, balanced blue-leaning reef spectrum.

Keep in mind that corals are living organisms; their appearance can naturally shift from tank to tank depending on your specific water parameters, nutrient levels, lighting spectrum, and flow patterns. We strive to provide honest, dependable photos you can trust so your new coral looks right at home from day one.
