Anacropora spp. (Green Goblin) is a captivating SPS coral prized for its vivid green coloration and intricate branching morphology. This large specimen is suitable for advanced marine aquarists aiming to add a rare and visually impressive coral to their reef tank.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate to high lighting is recommended to support healthy growth and vibrant colouration. LED or T5 lighting systems that provide a balanced spectrum are ideal.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong, turbulent water flow helps maintain coral health by facilitating nutrient exchange and preventing detritus accumulation.
Placement: Position the coral in the upper to middle regions of the aquarium to ensure adequate light exposure and water movement. Maintain sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and allow for growth.
Care Level: Due to its sensitivity and specific requirements, Anacropora spp. is best suited to experienced hobbyists familiar with SPS coral husbandry.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. This coral is generally reef safe but requires room to avoid stinging or overgrowth of adjacent corals.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae; supplemental feeding with fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or specialised coral foods can support growth.
Additional Notes: Origin and maximum size are not precisely documented for Anacropora spp., so conservative husbandry practices are advised. Regular water parameter monitoring and stable conditions will promote optimal health.
