The Montipora spp. (Laminar) Orange-Red frag is a visually stunning small polyp stony (SPS) coral prized for its bright orange-red coloration and laminar growth form. This cultured frag is suitable for marine reef aquariums and offers a vibrant addition to SPS coral collections.
Lighting: Moderate to high lighting is recommended to maintain the coral’s vivid colours and promote healthy growth. LED or T5 lighting systems designed for SPS corals work well.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong water flow is ideal to ensure adequate nutrient delivery and waste removal, helping to prevent detritus accumulation on the coral surface.
Placement: Position the frag in the mid to upper regions of the aquarium where it can receive sufficient light and flow. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggressive interactions.
Care Level: Moderate. While Montipora spp. are generally hardy among SPS corals, stable water parameters and consistent maintenance are essential for success.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing. Avoid placing near aggressive corals that may overgrow or sting the Montipora.
Water Parameters: Maintain stable marine conditions with temperature between 24-27°C, salinity at 1.025 specific gravity, and low nutrient levels.
This frag is a cultured specimen, grown under controlled conditions to ensure health and acclimatisation to aquarium life.
