💚⚡ Neon Venom Tenuis
Acropora tenuis – Toxic Green Colony
Please note: This listing is for a frag cut-to-order from the colony shown in the photograph.
🔹 Quick Stats
Care Level: Advanced
Temperament: Peaceful (requires high stability)
Colour Form: A striking toxic neon-green Acropora with luminous, glowing branches that radiate electric fluorescence under actinic lighting. Tightly spaced polyps shimmer with intense lime coloration, while the tips glow with a soft golden-green fire. Under blue spectrum lighting, the entire colony erupts in nuclear brightness — one of the most visually explosive tenuis morphs available.
Water Conditions: 24–26 °C, dKH 8–9, pH 8.1–8.4, sg 1.024–1.026
Family: Acroporidae
Lighting: High (intense PAR required for full fluorescence)
Water Flow: Strong, alternating
Placement: Upper rockwork
🧬 Overview
The Neon Venom Tenuis is pure reef energy — glowing like radioactive glass beneath strong reef lighting. This toxic-green Acropora tenuis combines raw intensity with strong architectural form: thick, vibrant branches, excellent polyp extension, and robust adaptability under stable, high-energy SPS conditions.
Its colour is extraordinary — vivid lime by daylight, blistering neon under blues. A must-have for SPS collectors seeking maximum fluorescence and visual impact.
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Fully photosynthetic, though weekly feeding with fine coral foods (Reef Roids, phytoplankton, coral powders) supports tissue health and colour depth. Stability is essential — maintain consistent alkalinity, nutrients, and trace elements. Supplementing iron and potassium helps sustain its signature fluorescent glow.
📈 Optimal Parameters
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|---|---|
| Alkalinity (dKH) | 8–9 |
| Calcium (Ca) | 430–460 ppm |
| Magnesium (Mg) | 1300–1400 ppm |
| Nitrate (NO₃) | 2–10 ppm |
| Phosphate (PO₄) | 0.02–0.08 ppm |
📍 Placement
Mount securely on upper rockwork with strong, alternating flow and intense lighting. Allow sufficient space between colonies to prevent shading and ensure full, even growth.
