Description
Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.
Don't let their name fool you; the Green Devil's Hand Coral is a great addition to a reef aquarium. This soft coral is easy to maintain, can be easily propagated, and grows very quickly into an attractive branching show piece in the aquarium. Because they grow so rapidly, be sure to provide enough space between them and their neighbors. Also, like most leather corals, the Devil's Hand can release a toxin that irritates its neighbors; for a safe introduction, give them a saltwater rinse after shipping and ensure your filtration has carbon. Devil's Hand Corals are the picture of hardy and love aquarium conditions that are not ideal for many corals, like low light and high nutrients. That being said, they will do best with a combination of low flow, moderate light, and nutrient enrichment.
- - Provide an aquarium placement with low to moderate lighting and lower water flow
- - Provide supplemental additions of iodine and other trace elements
- - For continued health, supplement with planktonic foods
- - Cannot tolerate copper medications
- - Great beginner coral
- - Reef safe

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
