Enhance your reef aquarium with this exclusive Coral Pack containing 10 large Acropora coral pieces sourced from the Coral Sea. Acropora corals are among the most sought-after Small Polyp Stony (SPS) corals, prized for their intricate branching structures and vibrant colours.
Lighting Requirements: These corals thrive under high-intensity lighting such as metal halide, T5, or high-output LED systems. Aim for a PAR range of 250-400 µmol/m²/s to support healthy photosynthesis and growth.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong, turbulent water flow is essential to prevent detritus accumulation and to promote gas exchange. Position the corals where water movement is dynamic but not directly blasting.
Placement: Place these Acropora pieces higher in the tank to ensure adequate light exposure. Maintain sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to reduce aggression and allow for growth.
Care Level: Due to their sensitivity to water parameters and lighting, these corals are recommended for advanced hobbyists with stable reef systems.
Water Parameters: Maintain stable conditions with temperature between 24-26°C, salinity at 1.025 specific gravity, calcium levels at 400-450 ppm, alkalinity 8-12 dKH, and magnesium 1250-1350 ppm.
Regular monitoring and maintenance of water quality, along with supplementation of trace elements, will ensure these Acropora corals flourish in your marine aquarium.
