The Montipora spp. (Laminar) Green coral is a captivating small polyp stony (SPS) coral known for its broad, plate-like laminar growth form and vivid green coloration. This large specimen offers a striking addition to mature reef aquariums, providing both texture and colour contrast.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate to high lighting is essential to support photosynthesis and maintain vibrant colouration. LED, T5, or metal halide lighting systems are suitable.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong water flow is recommended to ensure proper gas exchange and prevent detritus accumulation on the coral surface.
Placement: Position this coral in the mid to upper regions of the tank where it can receive ample light and water movement. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggression and overgrowth.
Care Level: Due to its SPS nature, this coral is best suited to intermediate to advanced hobbyists familiar with stable water parameters and consistent maintenance.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing. Avoid placing near aggressive corals that may harm it.
Additional Notes: Maintain stable water parameters with calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels within recommended ranges to support skeletal growth. Regular monitoring and dosing may be necessary.
