Apple Jacks Discosoma Mushroom

The Apple Jacks Discosoma Mushroom (Discosoma sp.) is a vibrant and eye-catching soft coral known for its bright green base covered in scattered orange and golden nodules. The surface is densely textured with small, rounded bumps that create a speckled “cereal-like” pattern — glowing green layered with warm orange tones that give this mushroom its signature look.

Under reef lighting, the neon green base fluoresces intensely while the orange spotting adds depth and contrast, creating a lively, high-visibility coral that stands out in any aquascape. As a Discosoma, it is hardy, adaptable, and an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced reef keepers.
