Cotton Candy Tenuis Acropora Coral - Care Requirements
Cotton Candy Tenuis Acropora Coral is an Acropora small-polyp stony coral with an advanced care profile. This Acro SPS coral suits established reef systems able to provide strong lighting, vigorous water movement, and consistent conditions. Its care needs align with other Acropora corals that depend on stable reef husbandry.
This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.
Quick Care Summary
-
Lighting: Strong reef lighting
-
Flow: Strong, random and turbulent flow
-
Placement: Middle to upper reef areas after acclimation
-
Temperament: Generally peaceful but space for growth
-
Care Level: Advanced
Lighting
Provide strong reef lighting after a measured acclimation period. Increase exposure gradually to help the coral adjust and avoid abrupt lighting changes in an established Acropora placement.
Flow
Use strong, random, turbulent flow that keeps water moving around the branches. Avoid low-flow or stagnant areas where detritus can settle and circulation is limited.
Placement
Place it in middle to upper reef areas once acclimated to the system’s lighting and flow. Secure the frag firmly and allow room for its future growth.
Temperament
Allow space for growth around this generally peaceful coral. Keep neighboring corals far enough away to prevent contact as branches develop and maintenance access becomes more difficult.
Feeding
Strong lighting provides primary support. Fine coral foods may be offered optionally when appropriate for the aquarium, while avoiding excessive feeding that can destabilize nutrients.
General Care
Maintain highly stable alkalinity, salinity, temperature, nutrients, and lighting. Avoid rapid parameter corrections, and monitor the coral’s response after any system adjustment. Advanced Acropora care is most successful in a mature aquarium with dependable consistency.
Consistency, strong light, and turbulent flow are the foundation of its care.
