Alveopora spp. (Green) is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral known for its delicate, feathery polyps and vibrant green coloration. This tiny, tank-bred specimen is ideal for marine aquarists looking to add subtle movement and texture to their reef aquariums.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain healthy growth and vibrant colouration. Avoid intense direct light which may cause stress.
Water Flow: Gentle to moderate water flow is best to ensure the polyps can extend fully without being damaged by strong currents.
Placement: Position this coral in a shaded or semi-shaded area of the tank, ideally on rockwork with enough space to prevent contact with neighbouring corals. Alveopora spp. can be sensitive to aggressive corals, so maintain adequate spacing.
Care Level: Intermediate. Requires stable water parameters and consistent maintenance.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing. Avoid placing near aggressive or fast-growing corals that may overshadow or sting it.
Feeding: While photosynthetic, Alveopora spp. benefits from occasional target feeding with small meaty foods such as phytoplankton or coral-specific liquid foods to support growth.
Origin & Size: Origin is not provided. This tiny variant is suitable for a variety of reef tank setups but avoid tanks smaller than 75 litres to ensure stable water conditions.
