Reef Species Encyclopedia: Fish, Corals & More

Browse hundreds of reef-safe fish, corals, anemones, and invertebrates with detailed care guides.

The Reefara species encyclopedia organizes hundreds of reef-safe fish, corals, anemones, invertebrates, and cleanup-crew animals. Each entry includes scientific name, difficulty rating, minimum tank size, ideal water parameters, diet, temperament, lighting and flow preferences, common diseases, and a curated list of compatible tank mates.

Coral entries also flag aggression (sweeper tentacles, chemical warfare), placement (high light vs low light, high flow vs low flow), and feeding response. Fish entries flag jumping risk, reef safety with corals and inverts, and known compatibility conflicts. Invertebrate and cleanup-crew entries list what each animal actually eats so you can build a balanced crew.

Use the tank planner to assemble a stocking list, the reef tools for compatibility and stocking checks, and the troubleshooting hub when something is wrong.
