UFO Scoly
A variant of Scolymia (Doughnut / Button Coral) (Homophyllia australis)
Typically a green-and-violet scoly arranged in a circular pattern, often with lemon-yellow and lime-green striations leading out to a dark contrasting 'UFO' rim.
📜 Backstory
'UFO' is an established wild Scolymia grade listed by LiveAquaria, Quality Marine, and European seller recifathome (WYSIWYG 'Homophyllia australis UFO' pieces), and named in Reef Builders' Scolymia care guide alongside Master, Bleeding Apple, Superman and Warpaint. It denotes a green/violet wild Australian Homophyllia australis color form, not an aquacultured designer line.
Keeper tips for this variant
Place on the sandbed under moderate light and low, indirect flow; the green/violet holds best at lower-to-moderate light rather than intense lighting. Spot-feed meaty foods weekly.
