Seriatopora caliendrum, commonly known as the Pink Bird’s Nest Coral, is a stunning small SPS coral prized for its delicate, intricate branching and vibrant pink hues. Originating from the reefs of Fiji and Tonga, this coral adds both texture and colour to mature reef aquariums.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate to high lighting is recommended to maintain its vivid pink coloration and healthy growth. LED or T5 lighting systems designed for SPS corals work well.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong water movement is essential to prevent detritus accumulation and to promote optimal health.
Placement: Position this coral in the mid to upper regions of the tank where it can receive adequate light and flow. Ensure sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and allow for growth.
Care Level: Intermediate to advanced. Requires stable water parameters typical for SPS corals, including consistent calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. This coral is generally reef safe but can be sensitive to aggressive neighbours.
Additional Notes: Regular monitoring of water quality and parameters is advised to maintain optimal health. Fragging should be done carefully due to its delicate branches.
