Fimbriaphyllia, a euphyllia. Beginner to keep, Typical PAR 75–150, low to moderate flow.
Rarity tier: uncommon, reviewed 2026-08.
Teal-green toward the base of each tentacle, rising into golden-yellow anchor tips. The T-shaped or boomerang tip is what makes it a hammer rather than a torch, and the gold intensifies under blues.
Hammers are far more forgiving than torches and a good first Euphyllia. Wall varieties are cheaper per head than branching ones, so check which you are buying.
Space to sweep, because the tentacles reach further than they look. Gold Hammer is beginner to keep at a typical PAR of 75–150 in low to moderate flow. A typical starting range for this type of coral rather than a measured requirement for this morph. Spectrum, how it was acclimated and the system it grew in all move it.
