UC Silver Fox Blasto Colony
Bring a show-stopping centerpiece into your reef aquarium with the UC Silver Fox Blasto Colony. Known for its incredible contrast and striking metallic coloration, the Silver Fox morph is a highly sought-after variant of Blastomussa wellsi. This fully encrusted, healthy colony features large, fleshy polyps with a deep, dramatic base accented by brilliant silvery-green centers and contrasting ring details that pop beautifully under heavy actinic LED lighting.
Blastomussa are a classic choice for both intermediate and advanced reef keepers, offering the dramatic look of large polyp stony (LPS) corals without overly demanding care requirements.
Coral Care & Placement Requirements
-
Common Name: Silver Fox Blasto
-
Species: Blastomussa wellsi
-
Lighting: Low to Moderate (PAR 50–120). Blastos thrive in lower light sections of the tank. Too much intensity can cause the polyps to bleach or stay retracted.
-
Water Flow: Low to Moderate. Provide gentle, indirect flow. High or direct linear flow will prevent the large, fleshy polyps from fully expanding.
-
Feeding: Target feed 1–2 times a week with finely chopped mysis shrimp, reef roids, or specialized LPS pellets to maximize growth rates and tissue health.
-
Temperament: Peaceful. They lack long sweeper tentacles, making them great neighbors on your lower rockwork or sand bed.
