This SPS coral is suited to established reef systems that can provide the strong lighting, turbulent circulation, and consistent conditions Acropora requires. Review the WYSIWYG specimen presentation to select the exact coral offered.

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 gradually to the intended intensity, then maintain consistent lighting to support this Acropora coral.

Flow

Provide strong, random, turbulent flow. Position it where circulation reaches the branches from changing directions without creating stagnant areas.

Placement

Place it in middle to upper reef areas after acclimation. Secure the frag well and allow room for its future growth and water movement.

Temperament

Keep space around it for growth. Acropora is generally peaceful, but adequate separation helps prevent contact with neighboring corals as the colony develops.

Feeding

Rely primarily on strong lighting for support. Fine coral foods may be offered optionally as part of a balanced reef-feeding routine.

General Care

Maintain highly stable alkalinity, salinity, temperature, nutrients, and lighting. This advanced-care SPS coral responds best to consistent husbandry; observe polyp extension and overall condition, and avoid rapid parameter corrections.

Best maintained in a stable, mature reef with deliberate acclimation and consistent flow.
