    Description and Care For this Coral

    Size: Approximately 1.5 inches

    This Purple tip Green Acropora is"WYSIWYG" - What you see is what you get - so this one is yours! 

    Acropora corals need intense lighting, preferably more blue than white, and lots of random flow. Natural saltwater level parameters are required: Specific gravity 1.026-1.028. Alkalinity 7.5-8.5, calcium 400-450, magnesium 1300+. Trace elements are critical for best coloration and growth and should be monitored monthly via ICP testing. 

    Our WYSIWYG Acropora frags are grown in our greenhouse and photographed under LED with ambient natural light.

    PLEASE NOTE: if you use a different lighting spectrum the color will appear different from our photo!

    General Care for Mixed Reef Tanks

    Lighting

    Lighting

    Aim for moderate, well-distributed lighting that supports both LPS and SPS—enough intensity for growth without overwhelming more light-sensitive species.

    Flow

    Flow

    Water flow should be varied and indirect, creating a gentle, chaotic movement that keeps detritus suspended while allowing fleshy corals to expand naturally.

    Feeding

    Feeding

    Feed lightly but regularly with a mix of fine particulate Live Foods and occasional meaty foods to support overall health without overloading nutrients.

    Parameters

    Parameters

    Most importantly, maintain stable water parameters—temperature 76–80°F, salinity ~1.025, alkalinity 8–9 dKH, calcium 400–450 ppm, and magnesium 1250–1350 ppm.
    A successful mixed reef tank is built on balance and consistency. 
    Stability, more than perfection, is what drives long-term success in any reef aquarium.

    Order FAQs  

    About Our Facility

    Q: Are your corals aquacultured?
    A: Yes. Many of our corals are grown in our Maryland Certified & Licensed Coral Aquaculture Facility.

    Q: Why choose aquacultured corals?
    A: Aquacultured corals are:
    - More sustainable
    - Better adapted to aquarium life
    - Typically hardier than wild specimens

    Q: Who selects and grows your corals?
    A: Our corals are grown and curated by Dr. Mac a Board Certified Veterinary Pathologist with decades of hands-on reef experience.

    Ordering & Shipping

    Q: What does WYSIWYG mean?
    A: “What You See Is What You Get.” The exact coral shown in the photo is the one you will receive.

    Q: Can I request a specific color or variation?
    A: For WYSIWYG items, what’s pictured is what you get. For non-WYSIWYG items, we do our best to match color and size, but natural variation occurs.

    Q: Can I combine multiple orders to save on shipping?
    A: Yes—contact us before shipping and we’ll consolidate when possible.

    Q: How are corals and fish shipped safely?
    A: We use insulated boxes, temperature control (heat/cold packs), and overnight delivery to ensure safe arrival.

    Q: What days do you ship?
    A: Typically Monday–Wednesday to avoid weekend delays.

    Q: Do I need to be home for delivery?
    A: Yes—someone should be available to receive livestock immediately.

    Q: What if my coral or fish arrives dead (DOA)?
    A: Contact us within a specified timeframe (e.g., 2 hours) with clear photos, and we will resolve it quickly.

    Q: What voids the guarantee?
    A: Missed deliveries, improper acclimation, or delays beyond our control.

    Live Arrival Guarantee

    Q: What if my coral or fish arrives dead (DOA)?
    A: Contact us within a specified timeframe (e.g., 2 hours) with clear photos, and we will resolve it quickly.

    Q: What voids the guarantee?
    A: Missed deliveries, improper acclimation, or delays beyond our control.

    Acclimation & First 24 Hours

    Q: How do I acclimate new livestock?
    A: Float to match temperature, then drip acclimate before placing in tank.

    Q: Should I dip corals before adding them?
    A: Yes but be careful, coral dips help prevent pests but use caution. Certain corals might benefit from a short quarantine period instead of a dip so as to further stressing them.

    Q: Why does my coral look closed or stressed?
    A: This is normal after shipping—most corals open within 24–72 hours.

    Aquarium Setup & Compatibility

    Q: Where should I place my coral in the tank?
    A: Placement depends on the coral type (LPS, SPS, soft). Lighting and flow requirements vary—check each product description.

    Q: Can different corals touch each other?
    A: Many corals have sweeper tentacles and can sting neighbors. Always allow space.

    Q: How fast will my coral grow?
    A: Growth depends on species, lighting, water quality, and feeding.
