Alveopora spp. (Green) (frag) | FRAG

Alveopora spp. (Green) Tank-Bred Frag is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its delicate, flower-like polyps and vibrant green coloration. This frag is cultured sustainably, grown by DJM, ensuring healthy specimens suitable for reef aquarists seeking to add subtle movement and texture to their marine tanks.

Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is recommended, such as T5 or LED setups providing around 100-150 PAR. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.

Water Flow: Gentle to moderate water flow is ideal to facilitate nutrient exchange without damaging the delicate polyps.

Placement: Position the frag on stable rockwork in a low to mid-level area of the aquarium. Ensure adequate spacing from aggressive corals to prevent stinging or overgrowth.

Care Level: Suitable for intermediate hobbyists familiar with LPS coral care. Maintain stable water parameters and regular feeding to promote growth.

Diet: Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae, but benefits from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton, rotifers, or specialised coral foods.

Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggression.

Additional Notes: Origin and maximum size vary within the genus; therefore, conservative husbandry practices are advised. Regular monitoring of water quality and coral health will ensure longevity and vibrant colouration.
