Acropora Feeding

[Jonthefishguy]

Anytime a new coral such as Acropora is introduced into a system, it should be introduced at the lower to mid level in order for it to get used to the new lighting conditions. Over a period of time, you can raise it to the proper level. Different lighting intensity can cause it to bleach, or change color due to drastic change. SPS corals, require Zooplankton as food as well as calcium. You can feed your SPS coral oyster eggs or live artemia eggs (unhatched of course) Phytoplankton is only good for soft corals so still with SPS food. Marc Wiess makes a food for SPS called SPS CORAL GROW.
