Also known as the Potato Chip Coral, the Cactus Pavona is an SPS coral with thin, leafy ridges that resemble potato chips. It features tan to green coloration and a delicate, ruffled texture. This coral thrives under moderate to high light and moderate flow, which helps prevent detritus buildup on its surface. Moderate in care, it grows in a plating or leafy branching pattern, making it ideal for adding structural interest and movement to SPS-dominated reef tanks.
