Acropora jacquelineae is a stunning species of Small Polyp Stony (SPS) coral prized for its intricate branching structure and vibrant colours. This extra large specimen is ideal for experienced marine aquarists looking to add a dramatic focal point to their reef aquarium.
Lighting Requirements: This coral thrives under high-intensity lighting such as metal halide, T5, or strong LED systems to support its photosynthetic needs.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong, turbulent water flow is recommended to ensure optimal gas exchange and nutrient delivery while preventing detritus accumulation.
Placement: Position Acropora jacquelineae in the upper to middle regions of the tank where it can receive ample light and water movement. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and allow for healthy growth.
Care Level: Due to its sensitivity to water quality and lighting, this species is best suited to advanced hobbyists who maintain stable, pristine reef conditions.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals. Avoid placing near aggressive species that may cause damage.
Additional Notes: Maintain stable parameters with consistent calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels to support skeletal growth. Regular monitoring and water changes will help maintain optimal conditions.
