The Orange Setosa is a truly unique and intense coral. With a brilliant orange coloration, which sometimes appears pink under really intense lighting, it has a very unusual growth from most other SPS corals.

Frags grown on plastic plugs can be mounted in a number of different ways. Many hobbyists just place the plug between pieces of live rock. Another method is to drill a 1/2″ diameter hole in the rock and simply place the plug in the hole. This method can be used to mount the coral at different angles. Some aquarists simply snap the coral off the plug and use epoxy to mount it to the rock.
