Together, they form a vivid showcase of warmth and luminosity, turning any SPS section into a colour explosion.
Water Conditions: 24–27 °C, dKH 8–11, pH 8.0–8.4, sg 1.024–1.026
Family: Acroporidae
Lighting: High (intense PAR enhances contrast and fluorescence)
Water Flow: Strong, turbulent, and multidirectional
Placement: Upper reef zones with open spacing
🧬 Overview
The Tierra Land & Toxic Green Tenuis Duo is a collector’s pairing that captures both ends of the reef’s colour spectrum — earthy fire meeting glowing neon life.
The Tierra Land brings depth and warmth with its gold-and-crimson tones, while the Toxic Green bursts with unmatched vibrancy, glowing like liquid emerald under actinic lighting. Side by side, they create a visual rhythm that enhances any reefscape — a perfect combination for advanced SPS collectors seeking both contrast and balance.
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Both corals are primarily photosynthetic but benefit from amino acid supplementation and occasional micro feeding (Reef Roids or coral-specific blends) once or twice a week.
Maintain ultra-stable parameters and strong alternating flow to ensure consistent colour expression and growth symmetry across the duo.
📈 Optimal Parameters
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|---|---|
| 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
Mount both frags in high-light, high-flow zones of the reef to emphasise their opposing tones. Position the Tierra Land in slightly warmer light and the Toxic Green under stronger blue spectrum for maximum contrast. Allow generous space for branching and natural spreading.
