One of the coolest, yet least talked about large polyp stony corals (LPS) in the reef hobby. Extremely visually striking exhibiting a blood orange striated body offset with electric orange eyes. Leptoseris are in the same family as Pavona and Psammocora and are hardy, colorful, and quite undemanding in terms of light and flow. A very sexy coral under regular and LED lighting. The Blood Orange Leptoseris is a moderate care level 3 coral which requires moderate lighting and medium water flow. 

One of the legendary Aussie LPS (large polyp stony) corals. The Duncanopsammia axifuga is available in two different growth forms: branching with widely spread single heads, and the cluster variety with tightly grouped heads. These corals possess an intense green coloration with purple tentacles and do best when placed in the rockwork. Duncans make ideal candidates for fragging at home, since they have such distinct corallites, amazing adaptability to lighting conditions, and rapid growth rates when target fed! The Aussie Cluster Duncan is an easy care level 2 coral which requires moderate lighting and medium water flow. 

This large polyp stony coral (LPS) is a favia (moon brain) species aquacultured by Eye Catching Coral. This gorgeous red favia with purple centers is one of the most intensely colored favias under blue light. At night its feeding tentacles extend on the inside edge of each polyp. If you feed them regularly with frozen Mysis they will reward you with fast growth. When placing them in the aquarium give them plenty of room since they have very effective long sweeper tentacles that will sting neighboring corals that are too close. The Flame Boy Favia is moderate care level 3 coral which requires moderate lighting and medium water flow.

This “poke you in the eye” purple Cespitularia is the hottest new coral released by ECC and it’s easy to see why. This is the hardiest and fasted growing variety of Cespitularia which will thrive in your aquarium. Being a member of the Xeniidae means its care requirements are very similar to that of Xenia requiring regular Iodine supplementation. What makes the variety unique is that it will spread by sending out runners, which remain interconnected, to form new colonies. The Starlight Cespitularia is a moderate care level 3 coral which requires moderate lighting and medium to turbulent water flow. 

The Electric Blue Texas Cichlid (Herichthys cyanoguttatus) is a stunning freshwater fish native to the rivers and streams of northeastern Mexico and southern Texas, making it the only cichlid species naturally found in the United States. Known for its vibrant electric blue coloration and iridescent spots, this cichlid can grow up to 12 inches (30 cm) in length, with males typically being larger and more colorful. They are omnivorous, feeding on a variety of foods such as high-quality pellets, live or frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp, and vegetable matter like spirulina-based foods. This species is known for its territorial and occasionally aggressive behavior, making them best suited for spacious tanks of at least 75 gallons with robust tankmates or as a single-specimen setup. To care for them, maintain water temperatures between 72–86°F (22–30°C), a slightly alkaline pH, and good filtration with regular water changes to manage their waste. Their vibrant colors and hardy nature make them a favorite among advanced aquarists seeking a centerpiece fish.

The Salvini Cichlid (Trichromis salvini), also known as the Tricolor or Yellow-Belly Cichlid, is a vibrant freshwater fish native to the rivers and lagoons of Central America, particularly in southern Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. This species can grow up to 8 inches (20 cm) in length, with males being slightly larger and more colorful than females. Salvini Cichlids are omnivorous, feeding on a mix of high-quality pellets, live or frozen foods like brine shrimp and insects, and occasional plant matter. They are admired for their striking yellow bodies with bold black stripes and red accents, especially during breeding when their colors intensify. These cichlids are territorial and semi-aggressive, so they are best kept in a tank of at least 55 gallons with robust tankmates and plenty of hiding spaces created with rocks, driftwood, and plants. To ensure their well-being, maintain water temperatures between 75–82°F (24–28°C), a slightly acidic to neutral pH, and excellent water quality through regular water changes and efficient filtration.

The Red Streak Gold Severum (Heros efasciatus) is a stunning color variant of the Severum Cichlid, originating from the slow-moving rivers and floodplains of the Amazon Basin in South America. This cichlid can grow up to 8 inches (20 cm) in length, making it a prominent and peaceful addition to larger aquariums. It is an omnivore, thriving on a diet of high-quality pellets, flakes, live or frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp, and occasional vegetables such as zucchini or spinach. Known for its vibrant golden body with striking red streaks along its flanks, this fish is relatively docile compared to other cichlids, making it suitable for community tanks with similar-sized, non-aggressive tankmates. For optimal care, provide a tank of at least 55 gallons with soft, slightly acidic to neutral water, temperatures between 75–84°F (24–29°C), and ample swimming space alongside plants, driftwood, or caves for hiding. Regular water changes and efficient filtration are essential to maintain their health and enhance their radiant colors.

Tetras are small, colorful freshwater fish belonging to the family Characidae, with popular species including the Neon Tetra (Paracheirodon innesi) and Cardinal Tetra (Paracheirodon axelrodi). Native to the rivers and streams of South America, particularly the Amazon Basin, these fish typically grow to about 1.5–2 inches (4–5 cm) in length. They are omnivorous, feeding on a mix of high-quality flakes, micro pellets, live or frozen foods like daphnia and brine shrimp, and occasionally plant matter. Tetras are known for their shimmering, iridescent colors and peaceful nature, making them ideal for community tanks. They thrive in schools of six or more in well-planted aquariums with subdued lighting, mimicking their natural habitat. To care for them, maintain water temperatures between 72–82°F (22–28°C), a slightly acidic to neutral pH, and a steady water flow with regular water changes to keep them healthy and active.
