Description

ORA Red Planet Acropora

There is hardly a more “classic” coral strain out there than the Red Planet acro from ORA. And its enduring popularity is pretty easy to understand! This tabling Acropora features dark red polyps and pink-magenta corallites that pop over a glowing green base. Its red coloration is one of the reddest reds you’ll find in an acro. The green color varies a bit from straight fluorescent to bronzy green; the green coloration is most likely to appear under extremely intense lighting. Growth tips may be considerably paler. This is a very hardy and forgiving strain that is perfectly suited to beginner SPS keepers!

The ORA Red Planet Acropora may be placed just about anywhere in the tank so long as it receives medium-high light intensity and moderate-strong water flow. See below for more information.

Size and Care Requirements

  • Purchase Size: ~1″ (length)
  • Max Size: NA
  • Water Parameters: 72-78° F, dKH 8-12, pH 8.2-8.4, sg 1.023-1.025
  • Color: Red to bright pink/purple, often with green base color
  • Reef-Safe: Yes
  • Diet: Zooxanthellate

The Benefits of Farmed Red Planet Acropora

Captive-bred livestock offers big advantages over its wild-caught counterparts. Cultured in captivity, it is better adapted to living in an aquarium, tends to be more disease resistant and harbors fewer pests. It is also better able to handle shipping/acclimation stress. By purchasing captive-bred Red Planet corals, you support the aquaculture of marine organisms and help to make our hobby more sustainable!

100% Alive on Arrival (AoA) Guarantee

We guarantee that every ORA Red Planet Acropora coral we sell will be Alive On Arrival and in good health. Should it arrive in any other state, we will replace it free of charge (including shipping). When the total livestock loss is less than $40, we issue store credit. For more information, please also visit our 100% Alive On Arrival Guarantee page.
