📜 Backstory
A common wild-collected color form imported from the Indo-Pacific and offered as a named listing by **Top Shelf Aquatics** ('Ultra Orange Fungia Plate Coral') among others. Not a proprietary lineage — it is the most reliably available bright color grade of standard Fungia.
Keeper tips for this variant
Rest it flat on sand under low-to-moderate light; if it inflates large, give it open space so the fleshy tissue isn't shaded or abraded by neighbors. Hardy and forgiving once placed.
