🧬 Overview
The Jason Fox Goblin Acropora is a premium SPS coral from the renowned Jason Fox collection, celebrated for its vivid green colouration, contrasting growth tips, and exceptional fluorescence. Its compact branching structure and intense pigmentation make it a standout centrepiece in high-end SPS reef aquariums.
Under stable water chemistry and strong blue-spectrum lighting, the Goblin develops brilliant fluorescent green branches with colourful contrasting tips, while its extended polyps add texture and movement throughout the colony. As it matures, it forms a dense, intricately branched colony with outstanding visual depth.
Like most premium Acropora, this variety rewards experienced reef keepers with spectacular colouration when maintained under stable conditions with high light and strong, random water flow.
Selected for:
• Authentic Jason Fox collector lineage
• Intense fluorescent green colouration
• Contrasting blue to purple growth tips
• Outstanding actinic fluorescence
• Premium SPS collector variety
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Although primarily photosynthetic, Acropora benefit from regular feeding of fine suspended foods and amino acid supplementation, helping to maximise growth, polyp extension, and colour intensity.
Recommended feeding:
• Reef Roids and fine powdered coral foods
• Zooplankton-based SPS foods
• Amino acid supplements
• Live or preserved phytoplankton as part of a balanced feeding regime
Maintaining excellent nutrient stability and consistent alkalinity is essential for long-term success.
