Overview
The Prism Bloom Alveopora is an ultra-elegant morph known for its floral-like polyps and unique chromatic contrast. Each polyp bursts with shimmering green bases and metallic pink sheens, giving this coral a luxurious, pastel foil appearance rarely seen in captivity.
With its gentle movement and soft extension, this species adds a sophisticated, dreamlike presence to any reefscape. Perfect for those who appreciate delicate motion and vibrant yet graceful colouration.
Care & Feeding
While this Alveopora hosts zooxanthellae and photosynthesizes, it will thrive with occasional feedings of microplankton, enriched rotifers, or coral-specific suspensions. Ensure stable water parameters and avoid high direct flow to preserve its polyp integrity.
Optimal Parameters
-
Alkalinity (dKH): 8–11
-
Calcium (Ca): 420–460 ppm
-
Magnesium (Mg): 1250–1350 ppm
-
Nitrate (NO₃): 2–10 ppm
-
Phosphate (PO₄): 0.01–0.05 ppm
Placement
Ideal placement is mid to low zones of the aquascape with wide, unobstructed room for polyp extension. Keep away from aggressive LPS or SPS to prevent tissue damage.
