This variety is recognized in the reef trade for light green branches with pink to reddish growth tips; ORA likewise identifies the Ponape\/Pohnpei Birdsnest as a \u003cem\u003eSeriatopora\u003c\/em\u003e variety rather than assigning a definitive species name. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e This WYSIWYG frag shows vivid green tissue with darker polyps and lighter developing branch tips. As it matures, \u003cem\u003eSeriatopora\u003c\/em\u003e can form dense, finely branched colonies that add texture and vertical structure to the reef aquarium. Because the exact species cannot be confirmed reliably from the trade name or photograph alone, \u003cem\u003eSeriatopora\u003c\/em\u003e sp. is the most scientifically accurate designation for this specimen.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Guide:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eSeriatopora\u003c\/em\u003e sp. generally performs well under moderate to high reef lighting with moderate to strong, turbulent water flow. ORA notes that the Pohnpei\/Ponape Birdsnest can tolerate a broad lighting range and moderate to strong flow, with somewhat lower lighting sometimes enhancing its green coloration. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Place the coral on stable mid to upper rockwork with sufficient room for its fine branches to expand. Maintain stable alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, salinity, temperature, nitrate, and phosphate. Bird’s Nest corals are primarily photosynthetic but can also capture fine suspended plankton and particulate foods. Stable water chemistry is particularly important, and abrupt shifts in alkalinity, temperature, salinity, or lighting should be avoided.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pacific East Aquaculture, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51895959322857,"sku":"U25 S1722","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2133\/7655\/files\/pink-tip-pohnpei-birds-nest-sps-under-25-pea-F-S1722.jpg?v=1789706802","url":"https:\/\/pacificeastaquaculture.com\/products\/pink-tip-pohnpei-birds-nest-under-25-pea-f-s1722","provider":"Pacific East Aquaculture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
