💚🔹 Venom Spark Acropora

Acropora tenuis (Toxic Green Base with Blue Tips Colony)

🔹 Quick Stats

• Care Level: Moderate to Advanced

• Temperament: Peaceful

• Colour Form: Bright, neon-toxic green base accented with electric blue tips. Under actinic or blue-dominant lighting, the blue tips fluoresce vividly against the neon green, producing a striking ultra effect.

• Water Conditions: 24–27 °C, dKH 8–12, pH 8.0–8.4, sg 1.024–1.026

• Family: Acroporidae

• Lighting: Moderate to high (to enhance tip fluorescence and ultra coloration)

• Supplements: Calcium, Magnesium, Trace Elements, Amino Acids

• Water Flow: Moderate — sufficient for healthy polyp extension

• Placement: Mid to upper reef levels

🧬 Overview

The Venom Spark Acropora is a vibrant ultra morph of Acropora tenuis prized for its bold neon-green branches and contrasting blue tips. The combination creates a visually striking, high-contrast ultra colony. Its branching structure allows full polyp extension, enhancing fluorescence and movement throughout the tank.

This morph is perfect for hobbyists seeking a dynamic, energetic centerpiece with eye-catching color contrasts.

🍽️ Feeding & Care

Although photosynthetic, this Acropora benefits from 1–2 weekly supplemental feedings of fine particulate foods, phytoplankton, or amino acid blends. Feeding promotes brighter tip fluorescence, fuller polyp extension, and steady growth. Stable water parameters are critical for maintaining vibrant neon coloration.

📈 Optimal Parameters

• Alkalinity (dKH): 8–12

• Calcium (Ca): 420–460 ppm

• Magnesium (Mg): 1250–1350 ppm

• Nitrate (NO₃): 0–10 ppm

• Phosphate (PO₄): 0–0.05 ppm

📍 Placement

Place in moderate to high lighting with steady, moderate flow. Ensure enough space for polyp extension and avoid aggressive neighbours. Under blue-rich lighting, the blue tips fluoresce intensely, standing out against the neon-green base for a dramatic ultra display.
