(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.

Not bad but read my full review if you are experimenting with different brands
Scent: Hair Styler (1 Pack)
So I am middle of the road on this product. First, I love the products from this brand and use some of their other products quite regularly. I was on a search for an alternative to the Crew Forming Cream (which I have used for maybe 20 years) and decided to purchase this product by Huron as well as the much cheaper medium hold styling cream by Cremo. All three are great products but you will need to decide for yourself how much hold you need as I have discovered that each are quite different and really shouldn't be compared to one another. I will say that if I had to put them all into two categories then Crew is heavy hold and Huron and Cremo is medium / light hold. I must admit that I was skeptical that the cheaper of the three, Cremo, would win me over but it has. For the record it has a very subtle scent (hardly noticable), just enough hold and does not leave you feeling like you have product in your hair. This is similar to Huron as well (although Huron is a very creamy in texture and you can tell its a higher quality product) but at the end of the day all that matters is great hold from a product that is affordable and does not leave a sticky texture in your hair. Cremo wins hands down. As for Crew, well it was a good ride but too expensive and way too heavy...time to move on.

So lightweight. Perfect for extra thick hair.
Scent: Hair Styler (1 Pack)
Its almost mousse like in how light weight it is and smells fantastic. I wanted something just above light weight hold and not weigh my thick hair down and this does a great job. A little pricey but SO much better than the usual store brands out there. And my wife is totally in love with how great it smells when I put it on, so bonus!

Smells good and doesn’t feel greasy
Scent: Hair Styler (1 Pack)
Product didn’t leave a greasy feeling to the hands or the hair. Kept hold all day for my hair style but I knew it was light hold going in. It has a great scent

Faithful to the soap's original scent
Scent: Original Citrus + Eucalyptus
I love the Huron Original Citrus + Eucalyptus bar soap so much, I started looking at the cologne from the same company. I collect (too many) fragrances, and love having different scents to choose from depending on the day and occasion. I have plenty of warmer scents, but not enough freshies that I really like. After reading other reviews here on Amazon, I figured this was a safe bet. And I was right! Performance is great. I use it on my skin only (because I only really want my wife and I smelling me...not everyone else who I walk by). It lasts me 8+ hours easily. And the fragrance is true to the original scent I know from Huron's soap. Exactly what I wanted. It's a very fair price for a cologne that performs this well, and I can wear it anywhere for any purpose, very versatile. The bottle is nice and the atomizer is strong and even.
