The Duncanopsammia axifuga frag is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its bright colours and distinctive polyp structure. This cultured frag contains two healthy polyps, grown under controlled conditions to ensure quality and sustainability.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is ideal, such as LED or T5 fixtures providing a PAR range of 50-150. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water movement is recommended to keep the polyps gently swaying without causing tissue damage.
Placement: Position the frag on a stable rockwork area with enough space to allow polyp extension and prevent aggression with neighbouring corals. Mid to lower reef levels are preferred.
Care Level: Suitable for aquarists with some experience in LPS coral husbandry. Regular water quality monitoring and stable parameters will promote healthy growth.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals to avoid stinging or overgrowth. Compatible with a wide range of reef-safe fish and invertebrates.
Feeding: While photosynthetic, supplemental feeding with planktonic foods or coral-specific liquid feeds can enhance polyp health and colour vibrancy.
This cultured frag is an excellent addition for hobbyists seeking to diversify their reef with a visually striking and manageable LPS coral.
