Neon Green Slimer Acropora formosa 

Chunky frag of green slimer that I've been growing for a month.  This is a good starter sps coral and it is very hardy. Will grow into a large colony so be sure to place it in a spot where it has space. 

 Approx 1.75 inch  frag   WYSIWYG  

Coral Care Guidelines:
Acropora do best in established aquariums that are no longer cycling and have stable water parameters. Our acropora colonies/frags are grown and maintained under ATI T5 and 250w Radium metal halide lighting. Acropora do well under moderate to strong lighting. If you run LEDS be sure to place your new corals in moderate lighting to start and then you can move them up after a week or two of acclimation.  Acropora and montipora do well in moderate to high flow, but not direct flow that can damage the tissue. Acropora will not do well in an aquarium with high levels of phosphates or nitrates, ph swings or high alkalinity. Stability and patience is the key to keeping healthy acropora and montipora. All new coral additions should be dipped in CoralRX, Revive, Bayer, or a coral dip of your choice to help prevent introduction of pests into your closed reef system. As vendors we do our best to sell pest free coral, but you should always dip regardless of who you purchase coral from.
These are our aquarium parameters:
Salinity 1.025
Alkalinity  8.5 - 9.2
Calcium  420
Magnesium  1400

How we ship your corals:

All corals are double - triple bagged, placed in a 3/4" thick styrofoam cooler box or thermoseal lined box with free heat/cool packs, packed with up cycled newspaper or bubblewrap.  We ship out by 5pm so that your order is in transit for the least amount of time possible.  We also check your zip code on the Weather Channel before shipping to make sure everything is packed specific to the current conditions in your area. If it is very stormy in your area or a snow storm is expected and you request us to ship anyway, our live arrival guarantee will be VOID. No exceptions.

Coral Acclimation Procedures:

For most corals, floating them for one hour to temperature acclimate them is enough. Inverts need to be acclimated slower with 50% change in water twice-three times for at least two hours. If you have any questions or concerns just contact us. We are here to help and want to make your buying experience as worry free as possible.

Care Instructions

Coral Care Guidelines: Zoanthids are generally easy to keep and make a great addition to a new or established aquarium. Our zoanthids are grown and kept under Kessil AP700 lighting, but will do well in a variety of lighting conditions. Most zoanthids and palythoa like med - high lighting, moderate to strong flow, and fairly stable water conditions. They can tolerate imperfect conditions and are one of the more forgiving corals to new aquarists mistakes. Zoanthids occur in a huge variety of colors; many reefers create gardens of them in their aquariums. All new coral additions should be dipped in CoralRX, Revive, Bayer, or a coral dip of your choice to help prevent introduction of pests into your closed reef system. As vendors we do our best to sell pest free products, but you should always dip regardless of who you purchase corals from.These are our aquarium parameters:Salinity 1.025Alkalinity  8.5 - 9.2Calcium  420Magnesium  1400

Firework Cloves polyps are one of our most popular corals; these beauties grow as quickly as zoanthids, but won't sting other corals.
