The Big Umbrella Leather Coral, also known as Yellow Fiji Leather Coral and Yellow Mushroom Leather coral, is native to Fiji and is a member of the family Alcyoniidae. These corals grow close to the rockwork; they do not grow an extended stalk like other Sarcophytons. Microplankton or baby brine shrimp are good diet offerings for about once a week, but the photosynthetic algae Zooxanthellae housed within its body provides most of its nutritional needs. As this coral grows, be sure to allow sufficient space between other corals. Trace elements including Strontium and Iodine are also recommended as supplements.
