The Green Tree Coral (Sinularia spp.) is a hardy, fast-growing soft coral that brings both structure and natural elegance to any marine aquarium. Known for its branching, tree-like growth, Sinularia is highly adaptable and perfectly suited for the Living Ecosystem Aquarium. Its soft, flexible structure adds a natural, flowing movement to the tank, creating a lush, reef-like appearance. Sinularia corals can be found in shades of light brown, green, and sometimes yellow, with a subtle shimmer that adds visual depth to the aquarium.

These corals are tolerant of a range of conditions, thriving in moderate light and water flow. They are also highly resilient to minor fluctuations, making them an excellent choice for beginners and those looking to cultivate a low-maintenance reef environment. Sinularia corals can grow quite large over time, adding height and depth to the tank’s layout.

Reproduction:
Sinularia Green Finger Tree Corals reproduce both sexually and asexually, making them prolific additions to any marine aquarium. They can reproduce by budding, where a small portion of the coral detaches and grows into a new colony, or through fragmentation, where a branch naturally breaks off and establishes itself elsewhere in the tank. These methods allow Sinularia corals to spread across the aquarium, filling in open areas and creating a dynamic, ever-growing reefscape.
