Acropora from Fiji

Acropora from Fiji only rarely make it to Germany. They are known for strong, clean colours. Acropora tenuis is considered one of the hardier Acropora species. Typical are the rosette-like radial corallites whose lips are often a contrasting colour.

The photo is a daylight shot with white balance, so you see the colours as they look under normal light, not enhanced under blue light.

Care

  • Light: medium to high
  • Flow: medium to strong, alternating
  • Water: stable parameters, KH 7–8.5 dKH, calcium 400–450 mg/l, magnesium 1,300–1,400 mg/l
  • Experience: for reefers with an established SPS tank

SPS corals · Small-polyp stony coral

Care at a glance

Typical requirements of the genus – individual specimens may differ.

Difficulty
Demanding – very stable water parameters required.
Light
High and even.
Flow
Strong and alternating.
Placement
Upper reef zone, standing freely.
Feeding
Mainly photosynthetic; trace elements support colouration.

Small-polyp stony corals such as Acropora, Montipora, Stylophora and Millepora form the backbone of natural reefs. They grow in branching, plate-like or encrusting forms and, with the right care, show exceptionally strong colours. Keeping them requires very stable alkalinity, calcium and magnesium levels as well as low but measurable nutrients. Strong lighting and powerful, alternating flow are a must. If you test regularly and dose consistently, SPS corals will reward you with rapid growth and intense colours.
