Acropora humilis (Green) is a striking small-sized SPS coral prized for its vivid green coloration and intricate branching structure. This Tiny variant is tank-bred, ensuring robust health and acclimatisation to captive reef conditions.
Lighting Requirements: This species thrives under strong lighting, ideally from high-quality LED or metal halide systems, to support its photosynthetic needs.
Water Flow: Moderate to high water flow is essential to prevent detritus accumulation and to promote healthy polyp extension.
Placement: Position this 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 avoid aggression and ensure optimal growth.
Care Level: Recommended for experienced aquarists due to its sensitivity to water quality and environmental stability.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic, but benefits from occasional supplemental feeding of fine particulate coral foods or plankton.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to prevent stinging or overgrowth on adjacent corals.
Regular monitoring of water parameters, including calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium, is crucial to support skeletal growth and overall coral health.
