🧬 Overview
The Joe’s Mango Acropora is a signature FreakinCorals home-grown aquaculture piece, selectively propagated from one of our most vibrant mother colonies. Cultivated under controlled LED and full-spectrum hybrid systems, this coral represents the best in sustainable reef colour and growth performance.
Its mango-orange to golden-yellow tones offer a warm counterbalance to blue-dominant SPS collections, while its intricate branching and fine corallite structure create stunning depth under any lighting setup.
As part of the FreakinCorals Aquaculture Line, each frag is cut-to-order, fully encrusted, pest-free, and conditioned for aquarium life — ensuring exceptional adaptation, growth, and colour stability.
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Completely photosynthetic, though coloration can be enhanced through trace dosing of Iron, Potassium, and Amino Acids.
Maintain ultra-stable water parameters and low nutrients to preserve its vivid orange-gold gradient.
Occasional microfeeding (Coral Vitaliser, Reef Energy AB+) supports healthy polyp expansion and skeletal density.
📈 Optimal Parameters
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|---|---|
| Alkalinity (dKH) | 8–10 |
| Calcium (Ca) | 420–460 ppm |
| Magnesium (Mg) | 1250–1350 ppm |
| Nitrate (NO₃) | 1–8 ppm |
| Phosphate (PO₄) | 0.01–0.05 ppm |
📍 Placement
Place in high-light and strong-flow areas of the reef to enhance pigmentation and prevent base shading. Ensure even exposure for consistent colour across the colony.
Ideal for SPS-dominant systems with mature nutrient control and stable chemistry.
