Acropora granulosa is a captivating small-polyped stony (SPS) coral known for its delicate, finely branched structure and attractive colouration. This small frag is perfect for experienced marine aquarists seeking to enhance their reef tanks with a high-quality SPS specimen.
Lighting Requirements: Acropora granulosa thrives under intense lighting, such as high-output LED, T5, or metal halide systems. Aim for a PAR range of 250-400 to support healthy growth and vibrant colours.
Water Flow: This species requires strong, turbulent water flow to mimic its natural reef environment, helping to prevent detritus accumulation and promoting optimal gas exchange.
Placement: Position this coral higher in the tank to ensure it receives adequate light and water movement. Maintain sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggression and ensure healthy growth.
Care Level: Due to its sensitivity to water quality and environmental changes, Acropora granulosa is recommended for advanced hobbyists with stable, mature reef systems.
Water Parameters: Maintain stable conditions with temperature between 24-27°C, salinity at 1.025-1.026 SG, calcium 400-450 ppm, alkalinity 8-12 dKH, and magnesium 1250-1350 ppm.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing; avoid placing near aggressive corals that may cause tissue damage.
Origin: Not Provided.
Maximum Size: Typically grows to medium colony size over time, depending on tank conditions.
