(Also known as Mini Scoly, Button Coral, or Disc Coral)

Overview

The Nano Button Scoly (Scolymia sp.) is a compact, vividly coloured large-polyp stony (LPS) coral, highly prized for its brilliant hues and symmetrical disc-like shape. Often displaying vibrant combinations of red, green, orange, and blue, this coral brings exceptional colour contrast and visual appeal to reef aquariums — even in small spaces. Its fleshy, button-sized body and central feeding mouth give it a bold presence, while its peaceful nature and moderate care level make it a popular choice for both nano and full-sized reef systems.

Origin

Native to the Indo-Pacific region, including the Coral Sea, Great Barrier Reef, Indonesia, and Fiji. Found on sandy reef slopes and lagoon floors, where it rests on substrate or among rubble in low to moderate light and gentle flow.

Feeding

The Nano Button Scoly is photosynthetic, housing zooxanthellae that provide most of its nutritional needs. However, regular target feeding enhances colour and growth. Feed 2–3 times per week with:

  • Mysis shrimp or finely chopped seafood
  • Marine plankton or LPS coral foods
  • Enriched brine shrimp or coral pellets

Feed when feeding tentacles are visible (usually at night or after lights dim).

Lighting

Low to moderate lighting. Too much light can cause colour fading or tissue recession. Provide diffused illumination from LED, T5, or hybrid systems.

  • PAR range: 75–150 ¬µmol/m¬≤/s
  • Acclimate slowly to new lighting conditions to avoid bleaching.
  • Under blue-spectrum lighting, colour pigments intensify dramatically, producing neon fluorescence.
Water Flow

Low to moderate, indirect flow. Gentle, variable currents help keep the coral clean and allow full polyp expansion. Avoid direct jets of flow that can cause the fleshy tissue to retract or tear.

Placement
  • Place on the substrate or a stable rock ledge with gentle flow and diffused light.
  • Ensure a flat, secure surface — the coral expands outward and should not tip or shift.
  • Provide 10–15 cm (4–6 inches) of space from other corals to prevent contact with sweeper tentacles or aggressive neighbours.
Tank Mates

Reef safe. Compatible with:

  • Peaceful reef fish (gobies, blennies, tangs, clownfish, etc.)
  • Snails, hermit crabs, shrimp, and starfish
  • Other non-aggressive LPS and soft corals

Avoid:

  • Large angelfish or butterflyfish (may nip at fleshy tissue)
  • Aggressive stinging corals (e.g., Torch, Hammer, Galaxea) nearby
  • Crabs or shrimp that may climb or irritate the coral
Aggression

Peaceful.Scolymia corals do not possess long sweeper tentacles but can release mild toxins if crowded. Maintain moderate spacing to prevent tissue damage or chemical stress.

Experience Level

Beginner to intermediate. The Nano Button Scoly is hardy and easy to maintain with stable water conditions. Ideal for smaller reef systems, coral gardens, or collectors looking for a compact, colourful display coral.

Water Parameters
  • Temperature: 24–27°C (75–81°F)
  • pH: 8.1–8.4
  • Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG
  • Alkalinity (dKH): 8–12
  • Calcium: 400–450 ppm
  • Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm
  • Nitrate: <10 ppm
  • Phosphate: <0.03 ppm
  • Tank Size: Minimum 40 litres (10 gallons); larger tanks preferred for long-term stability

Stable alkalinity and calcium levels are essential for healthy skeletal development and tissue thickness.

Reef Compatibility

Fully reef safe. The Nano Button Scoly is peaceful, vividly coloured, and compact — making it perfect for nano reefs, mixed LPS systems, and collector displays. With its gentle care requirements and hypnotic fluorescence, it adds a jewel-like focal point to any aquarium.




Interesting Fact

Unlike larger Scolymia species that can exceed 10 cm in diameter, “Nano” or “Button” Scolys are naturally small, often remaining under 5 cm across — allowing aquarists to keep multiple vibrant morphs together in small reef displays.

Solid Paddle Solid Price
Color: Blue*1
I am a beginner with Pickleball. However, I started using a $5 from 5 below and this paddle was a huge upgrade. The grip felt really good, solid in my hand with a little cushion. It was a solid and much sturdier than the previous paddle. This was a small investment in a great hobby that anyone can enjoy. I also think they really take care of you by giving you a case so it does not get scratched. I highly recommend. There truly was no downside I could think of to getting this. If you are a beginner like me, its a quality paddle at a quality price. no brainer

Just what you need!
Color: Green Black*4, Color: Green Black*4
This set is just what we needed for the 4 of us to play a nice game of pickleball. The quality is good, the carrying case keeps it all organized, and we keep it conveniently in the trunk of our car. It’s held up well even though it’s taken some beatings. Unless you’re a professional, it’s just what you need! Nice grip, handle is the right size, the weight is light; making it easy to use, and it’s created no issues with gameplay. Great deal for good quality equipment!

Pickleball Pandemonium: A Hilarious Mother’s Day Misadventure with a Top-Notch Paddle Set
Color: Blue*4
Let me spin you a tale of how I, the hopeful boyfriend of my girlfriend with two adorable-but-feral nieces, ages 3 and 5, tried to be the cool guy on Mother’s Day with this USAPA-approved fiberglass pickleball set. Spoiler: it was less “heartwarming family moment” and more “backyard dodgeball with extra chaos.” This set, though? Absolute gold for adults—just don’t hand it to toddlers unless you’re ready to star in a slapstick comedy. So, picture me, all bright-eyed, pulling out this slick pickleball set at my girlfriend’s sister’s place. The kit comes with paddles, balls, and a good-quality case that’s sturdy enough to survive a trip through an airport baggage claim. I’m thinking I’ll set up a mini court, show the nieces what pickleball’s all about, and maybe earn some “best boyfriend” points. In my head, it’s all slow-mo high-fives and cute kid giggles. In reality? I handed those paddles to the girls, and it was like arming gremlins with medieval weaponry. These paddles are *chef’s kiss* for grown-ups. The fiberglass surface gives a satisfying pop when you hit the ball, and the handles? Oh, they feel nice—comfy grips with just the right amount of cushion, like shaking hands with a friendly lumberjack. Plus, they’ve got some good weight to them—not so heavy you’re winded, but enough heft to feel like you’re swinging something legit. The balls are what you’d expect: standard, bouncy, perforated orbs that do their job without any surprises. But for kids? Disaster. The 5-year-old, who I’m calling Paddle-Wielding Warlord, grabs her paddle and swings it like she’s auditioning for *Gladiator*. First shot, she nearly takes out her 3-year-old sister, Tiny Catapult, who’s just vibing with her own paddle. I’m ducking near-headshots, yelling, “Gentle! Gentle!” while my girlfriend’s cackling so hard she’s got tears. Then there’s the ball situation. I lob one softly, thinking they’ll tap it back. Nope. Warlord yeets it across the yard like she’s gunning for the moon. It’s gone—probably chilling in the neighbor’s birdbath. Tiny Catapult, not one to be outdone, hurls her entire paddle, which spins through the air like a rogue frisbee. Flowerpots are in peril, my girlfriend’s sister is shouting about her azaleas, and I’m just trying to keep the nieces from turning this into a full-on demolition derby. The case, bless its durable heart, sat there safely holding the spare balls, mocking my poor life choices. Later, when the kids were safely bribed with ice cream and the adults got a turn, the set shone. My girlfriend and I rallied in the driveway, and those paddles felt like an extension of my arm—smooth, balanced, and ready for action. The USAPA approval means you could take these to a real court and not look like a chump. But for the toddler crowd? Yikes. Get those foam kiddie paddles that can’t double as blunt objects. This set’s a 10/10 for adult fun, with a bomb-proof case and gear that feels pro-level. Just don’t expect the under-6 crew to do anything but turn your yard into a *Mad Max* reenactment.

Great for the amateur player
Color: Black*2
Good paddles, especially for people new to the game. Much better than the mediocre padel’s and not far off from the carbon fiber ones.
