Acropora cf turaki - Aquacultured Acropora varieties now available from Biota Aquariums!
This variety is a "smoothskin deepwater" Acropora with thin, elegant branches. In our systems, this one is pastel green with ice blue tips. It's a very fast grower!
Acropora are considered to be by some the pinnacle of reefkeeping. They're generally considered to be difficult to keep, but very rewarding. They need moderate to high lighting and moderate to high water flow. It's necessary to maintain stable alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, and trace elements such as potassium. These fragments are grown under EcoTech Radion and Philips Coral Care lights. We use and recommend Easy Reefs Easy Booster and Easy SPS coral food.
