SPS Coral Leptoseris

Placement: Mount the Leptoseris Coral using IC gel glue, or putty, on an exposed rock in the lower two- thirds of the aquarium where they will receive moderate currents and low to moderate lighting. Leave space for this coral to grow and encrust the rocks around it.

Feeding: Although symbiotic algae called zooxanthellae hosted within the Leptoseris Coral supply most of their nutritional requirements through photosynthesis they do benefit from supplemental feedings of Oyster-Feast, mysis shrimp, or finely chopped meaty foods.

Lighting & Flow Requirements: The Leptoseris Coral requires moderate water flow and low to moderate lighting (PAR 120-220). T5’s, Metal Halides, or LED’s can all grow Leptoseris Corals when the proper PAR levels are provided. We recommend a 14-20K color spectrum for best coloration.
