Sc Orange Passion Acropora Coral is an Acropora small-polyp stony coral for advanced reef keepers. This WYSIWYG Acropora is an SPS coral suited to established reef systems that can provide strong lighting, turbulent circulation, and consistent water chemistry. Its care needs favor attentive husbandry and gradual acclimation.

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 gradual acclimation period. Avoid sudden lighting changes, as Acropora responds best when intensity and daily exposure remain consistent.

Flow

Use strong, random, turbulent flow to keep water moving across the coral. Position it where circulation is varied rather than directed in one constant stream.

Placement

Place it in middle to upper reef areas after acclimation. Secure the frag firmly and make placement adjustments gradually while it adapts to the aquarium’s lighting and flow.

Temperament

Allow room for future growth and avoid crowding neighboring corals. Acropora is generally peaceful, but adequate spacing helps maintain clear access to light and 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, monitor the coral’s response after any system change, and keep circulation strong and variable throughout the reef.

Best suited to stable, mature systems with attentive SPS-focused care.
