Collection: LPS Corals

Large Polyp Stony Corals

Discover our selection of LPS (Large Polyp Stony) corals - some of the most colorful and dynamic corals in the reef keeping hobby. LPS corals are known for their large, fleshy polyps and stunning movement in the water flow.

Why Choose LPS Corals?

• Dramatic appearance: Large, flowing polyps create incredible movement
• Vibrant colors: Available in stunning reds, greens, blues, and more
• Moderate care: Easier than SPS, more forgiving of parameter fluctuations
• Feeding response: Many LPS love target feeding and show visible reactions
• Great for mixed reefs: Compatible with most other coral types

Popular LPS Corals:

• Hammers, Torches, and Frogspawn (Euphyllia family)
• Duncan corals
• Acanthastrea and Micromussa
• Chalice corals
• Blastomussa and Favites
• Goniopora and Alveopora

LPS Care Requirements:

• Lighting: Low to moderate (PAR 50-150)
• Flow: Low to moderate, indirect flow
• Feeding: Benefit from regular target feeding
• Placement: Lower to middle areas of the tank
• Spacing: Give them room - sweeper tentacles can extend at night

LPS corals are perfect for reef keepers who want dramatic, colorful corals without the demanding requirements of SPS. Browse our selection and find the perfect LPS for your reef!
