Benjamin MacLeod –
The Acropora coral arrived healthy and vibrant. I’ve had it for two months and it’s thriving under strong LED lighting. Water parameters are stable and I’ve been doing regular water changes. It’s a bit demanding, but worth the effort for its beauty.

It’s a stunning addition to my reef tank. I keep it at the top level as recommended. Needs strong lighting and consistent water flow, but the coloration is impressive after a few weeks.
Megan Dyer –
The coral arrived in good condition. I’ve had to adjust my lighting and water flow to match its needs. It’s not for beginners, but it’s a rewarding choice for experienced aquarists.
