In plain words: A Duncan coral looks like a little bunch of flowers. Each flower is a polyp. It has a round, flat top with a mouth in the middle and a ring of short, soft tentacles around the edge. Most Duncans are green or blue-green.

About the Duncan Coral

Duncans are one of the easiest LPS corals. Their large, flower-like polyps open wide and respond eagerly to feeding, and new heads bud off regularly.
