Psammocora spp. Branched Frag is a cultured coral frag suitable for marine reef aquariums. This genus features small-polyped, branched colonies that add unique texture and colour to your reef display.
Care Level: Moderate – suitable for hobbyists with some experience in coral husbandry.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is recommended, such as T5 or LED fixtures providing medium PAR levels. Avoid intense direct lighting to prevent bleaching.
Water Flow: Moderate water flow is ideal to ensure proper gas exchange and nutrient delivery without causing tissue damage.
Placement: Position the frag in a shaded or semi-shaded area of the reef tank, allowing adequate space from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression or stinging.
Diet: Psammocora spp. are primarily photosynthetic but will benefit from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or coral-specific liquid foods.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to avoid contact with aggressive neighbours.
Origin: Not Provided – cultured specimens grown under controlled aquaculture conditions.
Maximum Size: Not Provided – growth rates and colony size vary depending on tank conditions.
Minimum Tank Size: Not Provided – recommended for established reef tanks with stable water parameters.
Regular monitoring of water quality, including stable salinity, temperature, and nutrient levels, will support healthy growth. Frag plugs or small bases allow easy placement and attachment within the reef system.
