Acropora microclados is a striking small polyp stony (SPS) coral prized for its intricate branching and vibrant colours. This Tank-Bred frag is cultivated under controlled conditions, ensuring robust health and acclimatisation to captive reef environments.
Lighting: This species thrives under strong lighting, ideally provided by metal halide, T5, or high-quality LED systems designed for reef tanks. Aim for PAR levels between 250-400 to support optimal growth and coloration.
Water Flow: Moderate to high water movement is essential to prevent detritus accumulation and to promote gas exchange. Position the frag where it will receive indirect but consistent flow to mimic natural reef conditions.
Placement: Place the frag in the upper to middle regions of the aquarium to ensure adequate light exposure. Maintain sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggressive interactions and ensure healthy growth.
Care Level: Suitable for intermediate to advanced hobbyists familiar with SPS coral husbandry. Stable water parameters and regular monitoring are crucial for success.
Water Parameters: Maintain temperature between 24-27°C, salinity at 1.025 specific gravity, 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 harm this species.
This frag is an excellent choice for marine aquarium enthusiasts looking to enhance their reef with a beautiful, Tank-Bred SPS coral that offers both aesthetic appeal and ecological value.
