Acropora selago is a beautiful small polyp stony (SPS) coral prized for its delicate branching structure and vibrant hues. This tiny variant is perfect for reef enthusiasts looking to add intricate detail to their SPS coral collection.
Lighting Requirements: This species thrives under strong lighting conditions, such as high-output LED or metal halide systems, to support its photosynthetic needs.
Water Flow: Moderate to high water flow is essential to keep the coral healthy, aiding in nutrient exchange and preventing detritus accumulation.
Placement: Position Acropora selago in the upper to middle sections of the aquarium where it can receive ample light and water movement. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and allow for growth.
Care Level: This coral is best suited for intermediate to advanced aquarists due to its specific husbandry requirements.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. It is generally reef safe but can be sensitive to aggressive neighbours.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic, but benefits from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as coral foods or phytoplankton.
Additional Notes: Maintain stable water parameters with consistent calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels to support skeletal growth. Regular monitoring and water changes are recommended.
