Here are 3 key points for first-time Coral buyers
Soft corals like zoanthids, star polyps, and disc corals tolerate water parameter fluctuations and are ideal for first-time coral keepers. Work your way up to SPS gradually.
Corals need proper salinity, calcium, KH, and magnesium levels. Ask the breeder for their water parameters and verify they're not drastically different from your tank conditions.
Choose breeders who share photos and environment info of parent corals. Check that frag cut points are healed and polyps are fully extended.

Coral species and variety details
Buy directly from verified Breeders
Soft corals like zoanthids and star polyps are hardy and beginner-friendly. Start with resilient species and gradually work your way up to LPS and SPS corals.
Zoanthid frags range from around 1,000-3,000 yen, LPS from 3,000-10,000 yen, and SPS Acropora species from 5,000-30,000+ yen depending on species and coloration.
Basic equipment includes a tank, LED lighting, protein skimmer, circulation pump, heater, and refractometer. For SPS corals, you'll also need a calcium reactor and high-performance lighting.
Ensure the coral has vivid coloration without bleaching, polyps are fully extended, and the base is firmly attached. Also watch for shipping damage.
With proper care, corals can live for decades. In the wild, some colonies survive for hundreds of years. Water quality management and proper lighting and flow are key to longevity.
