Rainbow Confetti Scoly
A variant of Scolymia (Doughnut / Button Coral) (Homophyllia australis)
A brilliant orange body sprinkled all over with 'confetti'-like flecks of pastel purple and eye-popping baby blue — a standout single specimen.
📜 Backstory
A specific named individual featured by Reef Builders in 2024 as 'Rainbow Confetti Scoly Lands at Top Shelf Aquatics.' It was wild-collected in Australia by Don Gilson of Inter-Fish PTY LTD and added to an Inter-Fish breeding project (the parent spawned in captivity in October), then imported to the US and selected by Top Shelf Aquatics (TSA) before being sold to a high-end collector in Texas. It is a documented wild specimen with traceable provenance rather than a cloned line.
Keeper tips for this variant
Keep on the sandbed at around 76-78F under moderate light and gentle flow; this is a high-value piece, so prioritize stable parameters over chasing growth. Spot-feed meaty foods.
