Good circulation helps prevent detritus from settling on the colony and supports healthy polyp extension and calcification. Place on stable mid to upper rockwork with adequate room for continued branching growth. Maintain stable alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, salinity, temperature, nitrate, and phosphate. Porites is primarily photosynthetic, although its small polyps can capture fine suspended plankton and particulate foods. Supplemental feeding is generally optional in a mature reef aquarium. Consistent water chemistry and gradual acclimation to stronger lighting are important for maintaining healthy growth and coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pacific East Aquaculture, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51895765270761,"sku":"U25 S1719","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2133\/7655\/files\/yellow-green-branching-porites-sps-under-25-pea-F-S1719.jpg?v=1789706779","url":"https:\/\/pacificeastaquaculture.com\/products\/yellow-green-branching-porites-under-25-pea-f-s1719","provider":"Pacific East Aquaculture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
