The ORA Red Planet is an absolutely stunning SPS coral (small polyped stony). This coral has a bright fluorescent green body with reddish pink growth tips and beautiful red polyps. This coral will have a pretty compact growth pattern and should table out nicely under the right conditions. The red planet is considered to by a pretty hardy coral. ORA worked with this particular strain for over two years before releasing it, starting with a single tiny fragment which was obtained from a hobbyist in Europe. The Red Planet Table is a fast growing coral, and displays exceptional color under a wide variety of lighting conditions. This is one of the nicest corals ORA has released; as you can see from the many photos.
