Acropora spp. (Grade A) Tank-Bred Frag represents a selection of premium small coral fragments from the Acropora genus, renowned for their vibrant colours and intricate branching structures. These frags are cultivated under controlled conditions, ensuring healthy growth and acclimatisation to aquarium life.
Lighting Requirements: Acropora corals require strong, intense lighting to thrive, ideally provided by high-quality LED, T5, or metal halide systems. Aim for a PAR range of 250-400 µmol/m²/s to support optimal photosynthesis.
Water Flow: Moderate to high water flow is essential to prevent detritus accumulation and to supply nutrients. Position the frag where it will receive turbulent, indirect currents rather than direct blasts.
Placement and Spacing: Place the frag in the upper to middle regions of the tank to ensure adequate light exposure. Maintain sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to reduce aggression and prevent tissue damage, as Acropora can be sensitive to chemical warfare.
Care Level: Due to their sensitivity to water quality and lighting, Acropora spp. frags are best suited for experienced aquarists who maintain 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. Compatible with most reef-safe fish and invertebrates.
Origin: Not Provided – these frags are tank-bred to ensure sustainability and reduce wild collection impact.
