Acropora gomezi | T

Acropora gomezi is a delicate and visually captivating small polyp stony (SPS) coral prized by advanced marine aquarists. This tiny specimen offers a unique addition to mature reef tanks, showcasing intricate branching and vibrant colours under optimal conditions.

Lighting: Requires high-intensity lighting, ideally provided by metal halide, T5, or high-quality LED systems to support its photosynthetic needs.

Water Flow: Prefers strong, turbulent water movement to mimic natural reef environments, which helps maintain coral health and prevents detritus accumulation.

Placement: Position in the upper to middle sections of the aquarium where light and flow are strongest. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggressive interactions.

Care Level: Best suited for experienced hobbyists familiar with stable water parameters and SPS coral husbandry.

Diet: Primarily photosynthetic but benefits from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or specialised coral feeds.

Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to avoid coral warfare.

Minimum Tank Size: 90 litres (20 gallons) recommended to maintain stable water quality and environmental conditions.

Origin: Not Provided.

Maximum Size: Typically grows to moderate colony sizes under optimal conditions; exact maximum size not provided.
