Frankenstein Mushroom Coral

Name: Frankenstein Mushroom Coral (Rhodactis sp.)

Description

The Frankenstein Mushroom Coral is a premium bounce-style Rhodactis known for its oversized vesicles, bold texture, and intense colour patterns. Typically showing neon greens, blues, oranges, and yellows across a thick, contoured surface, it delivers a true collector-level look with unmistakable “Frankenstein” character.

Why We Like It

Frankensteins are some of the most striking and sculptural mushrooms available. The huge bubbly texture, deep folds, and bright fluorescence make every frag look unique. They stay compact, grow reliably, and pack massive visual impact into very little space—perfect for high-end softie and mixed LPS systems.

Details

• PAR: 50–120
• Placement: Low to mid-level; low to moderate flow
• Aggression: Mild—may sting if in direct contact; give small spacing
• Photosynthetic: Yes
• Recommended Feeding: Occasional Reef Roids, phytoplankton, or tiny meaty foods to support growth and bounce development
• Rarity: Rare to Ultra Rare (morph-dependent)

Notes

Keep flow gentle to preserve bounce structure and prevent detachment. Thrives in stable, slightly nutrient-rich systems. Colour and vesicle size typically improve under blue-heavy lighting. Avoid placing near high-flow outlets or aggressive corals.
