🔹 Care & Feeding
Acropora hyacinthus thrives in mature, stable reef aquariums with moderate to high lighting and strong, variable water movement.
Provide powerful, turbulent flow around the coral to prevent detritus accumulation and maintain healthy tissue throughout its developing table structure.
Consistent alkalinity, calcium and magnesium levels are essential for healthy skeletal growth and long-term stability.
Gradually acclimate new frags to higher lighting intensity, particularly when transferring them between aquariums with different LED spectra.
Although primarily photosynthetic, occasional feeding with fine particulate coral foods, amino acids and plankton-based nutrition may support tissue health and growth.
Maintain balanced nitrate and phosphate concentrations, avoiding sudden nutrient fluctuations or excessively nutrient-poor conditions.
🔹 Recommended Parameters
Temperature: 24–26 °C
Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG
Alkalinity: 7.5–8.5 dKH
Calcium: 400–450 ppm
Magnesium: 1250–1400 ppm
Nitrate: 2–10 ppm
Phosphate: 0.03–0.10 ppm
🔹 Placement & Compatibility
Ideally positioned in the middle to upper sections of the reef, where it receives moderate to high lighting and strong, multidirectional water movement.
Allow generous horizontal space for its characteristic table-forming growth, ensuring that developing branches do not shade neighbouring corals.
Avoid direct contact with other SPS colonies and maintain good water circulation both above and below the coral as it matures.
Under stable aquarium conditions, this species can develop an impressive, expansive table structure with beautiful red and green pigmentation.
