War Coral (Favites pentagona) is a hardy and colorful LPS coral prized for its deep reds, greens, and contrasting eyes that glow under blue light. It thrives in moderate lighting and water flow, forming encrusting or dome-shaped colonies that add texture and color to any reef. This coral is semi-aggressive, extending long sweeper tentacles at night, so it should be given space from neighbors. While it can absorb nutrients from the water, it benefits from occasional target feeding with reef foods like mysis or coral blends. With stable parameters and good placement, War Coral grows steadily and is an excellent choice for both beginner and experienced reef keepers.
