Acropora suharsonoi is a small, branching SPS coral known for its vivid colours and delicate structure, making it a prized specimen in advanced reef aquariums. This coral thrives under strong lighting and moderate to high water flow, conditions that replicate its natural reef habitat.
Care Level: This species is best suited for experienced aquarists familiar with maintaining stable water parameters and high-quality reef conditions.
Lighting Requirements: Provide intense LED or metal halide lighting to support optimal photosynthesis and vibrant coloration.
Water Flow: Moderate to high water movement is essential to prevent detritus accumulation and to promote healthy polyp extension.
Placement: Position this coral higher in the tank to ensure adequate light exposure, with sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggression and ensure healthy growth.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to prevent stinging or overgrowth of nearby corals.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic but benefits from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as coral foods or phytoplankton.
Origin: Not Provided.
Maximum Size: Typically grows to a small colony size, suitable for compact reef setups.
Minimum Tank Size: Recommended for tanks 75 litres (20 gallons) and above to maintain stable water conditions.
Regular water testing and maintenance are crucial to keep parameters stable, including calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels, to support healthy skeletal growth.
