The Yellow Scroll Coral (Turbinaria spp.)

The Yellow Scroll Coral (Turbinaria spp.), also known as the Pagoda or Cup Coral, is a hardy stony coral that forms unique, scroll-like plates and whorls. Its bright yellow coloration and textured polyp surface make it a striking addition to both mixed and species reef aquariums.

Unlike many stony corals, Turbinaria is relatively forgiving and can adapt to a wide range of conditions, thriving under moderate to high lighting and strong, turbulent flow. Over time, it develops beautiful layered structures that create depth and dimension within the aquascape.

The Yellow Scroll Coral is considered semi-aggressive but generally peaceful compared to many other stony corals, making it easier to place in community reef tanks. With stable water parameters, this coral will grow steadily into an eye-catching colony that stands out as a centerpiece or accent coral.
