Paletta Pink Tip Acopora Coral

Paletta Pink Tip Acopora Coral - Care Requirements

Paletta Pink Tip Acopora Coral is an Acropora small-polyp stony coral for advanced reef systems. This WYSIWYG Acro is suited to reef keepers prepared to provide the strong lighting, turbulent circulation, and consistent conditions expected by Acropora corals.

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 and acclimate gradually to its final intensity. Consistent lighting helps this SPS coral settle without unnecessary stress from abrupt changes.

Flow

Use strong, random, turbulent flow that reaches the coral from varied directions. Avoid low-flow or stagnant areas where detritus can settle around the frag.

Placement

Place it in middle to upper reef areas after acclimation. Secure the frag where it receives strong light and turbulent flow without being shaded by surrounding growth.

Temperament

Allow space for future growth even though Acropora is generally peaceful. Plan its position carefully so neighboring corals do not crowd, shade, or interfere with its water movement.

Feeding

Rely primarily on strong lighting for support. Fine coral foods may be offered optionally as part of an established feeding routine.

General Care

Maintain highly stable alkalinity, salinity, temperature, nutrients, and lighting. Avoid rapid parameter corrections, and observe the coral during acclimation and after any system adjustments so changes can be made gradually.

Best suited to a stable, established reef with attentive long-term care.
