Acropora
Acropora corals have the largest number of species in the sps world and can be one of the most demanding and challenging corals to keep. But they can also be the most rewarding. With display tanks looking out of this world.
The challenge of Acropora coral care is tied to their high demands for lighting, water flow, and pristine water chemistry. They crave incredibly stable conditions in their environment, and on the surface, this sounds simple; however, those that have successfully kept Acropora understand the underlying difficulty. All these challenges make for a constantly moving target as the reef system grows over time, so there are constant changes you have to make to maintain the reef’s health.
Different species are more demanding than others so it is best to start with the easier ones and work up.
