Overview
The Green Hammer is a classic old school Euphyllia favorite with branching growth and eye-catching coloration. Its flowing, bubble-like tentacles add motion and dimension to reef tanks. As a branching type, it's easier to frag and tends to recover faster from propagation than wall hammers.
Like other Euphyllia corals, this hammer prefers moderate, indirect flow and moderate lighting, and should be given a few inches of space to avoid stinging its neighbors.
