Gradual acclimation is preferable to sudden changes in light, flow, or placement. Check regularly for debris accumulation, unwanted contact with neighboring corals, and signs that its chosen location needs minor adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive it stable placement and adequate spacing for reliable long-term care.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WYSIWYG Coral","offers":[{"title":"Frag","offer_id":49209475432670,"sku":"E08-S1-10-13-04","price":68.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/1002\/7486\/files\/charizard-dips-astraea-coral-e08-s1-10-13-04-8487435.jpg?v=1792016473","url":"https:\/\/www.riptideaquaculture.com\/products\/charizard-dips-astraea-coral-wysiwyg-e08-s1-10-13-04","provider":"Riptide Aquaculture LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
