About this item

Purple Tip Green Branching Hammer

Purple Tip Green Branching Hammer (Euphyllia parancora) is one of the most striking and eye-catching LPS corals in the reef hobby. Its bold, flowing tentacles in vivid neon green with contrasting deep purple tips sway hypnotically with every current pulse, creating a dramatic two-tone display that commands attention in any system. Under reef lighting, the green body fluoresces brilliantly while the purple tips add a rich, jewel-like contrast that makes this coral truly stand out.

As a branching variety, this Hammer has a natural growth advantage — over time, each head will branch and divide, gradually building into a full, multi-headed colony from a single frag. What begins as one head today becomes one of the most visually dominant pieces in your tank over the coming months and years.

Purple Tip Green Branching Hammer is a moderately forgiving LPS coral and a perennial favorite for hobbyists ready to add a bold centerpiece to their reef. Once established, it is a steady and rewarding grower that consistently delivers high visual impact.

Special Considerations

Hammer corals extend long sweeper tentacles at night that can sting neighboring corals. Provide adequate spacing — at least 4–6" from other corals in all directions. Avoid direct, high-velocity flow, which can prevent full extension and cause tissue irritation. Brown jelly disease is an occasional risk; maintain good water quality and handle tissue carefully during placement.
