Its exceptionally fleshy tissue can be damaged by excessive flow or abrasion against sharp rock, so placement on a stable, relatively smooth substrate is preferred. Allow the coral plenty of room to fully inflate without contacting neighboring corals. Maintain stable temperature and salinity along with consistent alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, nitrate, and phosphate. Although photosynthesis supplies much of its energy, Acanthophyllia can benefit from occasional targeted feeding with appropriately sized meaty marine foods when feeding tentacles are extended. Avoid sudden changes in lighting or water chemistry, and handle the coral by its skeleton rather than its inflated tissue whenever possible.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pacific East Aquaculture, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67720523677929,"sku":"HP OC1915","price":459.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2133\/7655\/files\/ultra-acanthophyllia-lps-coral-colonies-pea-HP-OC1918.jpg?v=1792444925","url":"https:\/\/pacificeastaquaculture.com\/products\/ultra-acanthophyllia-pea-hp-oc1918","provider":"Pacific East Aquaculture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
