Paletta Pink Tip Acopora Coral

Paletta Pink Tip Acopora Coral - Care Requirements

Paletta Pink Tip Acopora Coral is an Acropora small-polyp stony coral with advanced care requirements. This WYSIWYG Acro is suited to established reef systems that can provide the strong lighting, turbulent circulation, and day-to-day stability Acropora corals require.

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. Acclimate carefully to the intended intensity, then maintain consistent lighting conditions to support this SPS coral.

Flow

Use strong, random, turbulent flow. Varied circulation helps keep the coral clear of settled debris without leaving it in a stagnant area.

Placement

Place it in the middle to upper reef after acclimation. Secure the specimen where it receives strong light and broad, changing water movement.

Temperament

It is generally peaceful, but leave room for growth. Avoid crowding it with neighboring corals so branches have space and maintenance remains manageable.

Feeding

Light provides primary support. Fine coral foods can be offered optionally, while avoiding excess feeding that could disrupt nutrient stability.

General Care

Maintain highly stable alkalinity, salinity, temperature, nutrients, and lighting. Avoid rapid parameter corrections, monitor its response after adjustments, and make changes gradually in this advanced-care reef environment.

Best kept in a mature reef with consistent husbandry and circulation.
