Acropora turaki is a beautiful small polyp stony (SPS) coral known for its delicate branching structure and vibrant hues. This frag is cultured under controlled conditions, ensuring a healthy and sustainable addition to your reef tank.
Lighting Requirements: Acropora turaki thrives under high-intensity lighting such as metal halide, T5, or strong LED systems. Aim for PAR levels between 250-400 µmol/m²/s to support optimal growth and coloration.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong, turbulent water flow is essential to prevent detritus buildup and to promote healthy tissue growth. Position the frag where it can receive varied currents without direct blasting.
Placement: Place this frag in the upper to middle regions of the aquarium to ensure adequate light and flow. Maintain sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggression and ensure healthy expansion.
Care Level: This species requires stable water parameters and is best suited for intermediate to advanced hobbyists familiar with SPS coral care.
Water Parameters: Maintain 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.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to prevent coral warfare.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae, but benefits from supplemental feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or specialised coral foods.
Origin: Not Provided.
Maximum Size: Not Provided.
