WHY SHOULD I BUY THIS CORAL?
The Maui Wowi Bounce Mushroom is a highly sought‑after, collector‑grade Rhodactis bounce coral famed for its oversized, inflated “bounce” vesicles and intense neon coloration. Displaying vibrant yellows, greens, and electric highlights often set against a contrasting base, this mushroom delivers an unmistakable 3D appearance and extreme fluorescence under blue lighting. Its dramatic texture and bold colour saturation make it one of the most eye‑catching mushroom corals available and a true statement piece for premium reef aquariums.

WATER REQUIREMENTS & GENERAL CARE

• Temperature: 24–27 °C
• Salinity: 1.024–1.026 (32–35 ppt)
• pH: 8.1–8.4
• Alkalinity: 8–9 dKH
• Calcium: 380–450 ppm
• Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm
Stable water conditions support full inflation, healthy bounce formation, and long‑term colour retention.

---

LIGHTING
• Low–Moderate
• PAR Range: 40–100 PAR

Lower to moderate lighting helps preserve bounce size and color intensity. Excessive light may cause shrinking or loss of inflation.

---

PLACEMENT
• Bottom / Shaded rockwork

Best placed on the sandbed or low, shaded rockwork. Isolation on a single rock is recommended to manage spreading.

---

FLOW

Recommended feeding schedule:
• Occasional

While not required, light feeding may encourage growth and thicker tissue.
