The Acropora spp. (Coral Sea) Ultra Special Selected is a stunning small to medium-sized SPS coral prized for its vibrant colours and intricate branching structure. Sourced from the Coral Sea, this specimen is carefully selected for superior health and aesthetic appeal, making it an excellent choice for experienced marine aquarists aiming to enhance their reef displays.
Care Level: Moderate to advanced. Acropora corals require stable water parameters and attentive husbandry.
Lighting Requirements: Strong, high-intensity lighting such as metal halide, T5, or high-output LEDs is essential to support photosynthesis and maintain vibrant pigmentation.
Water Flow: High, turbulent water flow is recommended to prevent detritus accumulation and promote healthy tissue growth.
Placement: Position this coral in the upper to mid-levels of the aquarium where it can receive ample light and water movement. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggression and allow for growth.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic, but benefits from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or specialised coral feeds.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing. Avoid placing near aggressive corals that may sting or overshadow it.
Additional Notes: Maintain stable water parameters with low nutrients, including calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium at optimal levels to support skeletal growth. Regular monitoring and water changes are advised to sustain ideal conditions.
