Red Planet Acropora

Care for Red Planet Acropora Coral

Placement: Mount the Red Planet Acropora using coral gel glue, or putty, on an exposed rock or ledge in the aquarium where it will receive direct flow and light. This coral grows outward like a table. Give it space to “table out” and it will grow into a beautiful showpiece.

Lighting & Flow Requirements: The Red Planet Acropora requires moderate to high water flow and bright lighting (PAR 350-500) to maintain its color. T5’s, Metal Halides, or LED’s can all grow acropora when the proper PAR levels are provided. We recommend a 14-20K color spectrum for best coloration.
