The Acropora spp. (Green) Tank-Bred Frag is a stunning addition to any SPS coral collection, prized for its vibrant green hues and intricate branching structure. As a tank-bred specimen, it offers improved acclimation and resilience compared to wild-caught corals, making it a preferred choice for marine aquarium enthusiasts.
Lighting Requirements: This coral thrives under strong lighting conditions, ideally provided by high-quality LED, T5, or metal halide systems. Aim for PAR levels between 250-400 µmol/m²/s to support healthy growth and vibrant colouration.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong, turbulent water flow is essential to mimic natural reef environments, helping to prevent detritus accumulation and promoting optimal gas exchange.
Placement: Position the frag in the upper to middle regions of the aquarium where lighting and water flow are optimal. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and allow for healthy expansion.
Care Level: Due to its SPS classification and sensitivity, this coral is best suited for intermediate to advanced hobbyists with stable water parameters and experience maintaining reef tanks.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic, relying on symbiotic zooxanthellae, but will benefit from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or specialised coral feeds.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to avoid stinging interactions with neighbouring corals.
Additional Notes: Maintain stable water parameters with calcium levels around 400-450 ppm, alkalinity between 8-12 dKH, and magnesium at 1250-1350 ppm. Regular monitoring and water changes will support optimal health and growth.
