Aquacultured Yellow Porites Coral (Porites sp.)
Description
Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.
The Yellow Porites are hardy corals with vibrant yellow coloration and short, fuzzy-looking polyps that help this coral stand out in aquariums and make them a fan favorite among SPS coral hobbyists. They will display the best color and grow the most quickly under brighter lighting and stronger intermittent water flow, which can be achieved using powerheads or wave makers. Since they do not have sweeper tentacles, they can be housed closer to other corals. Feeding any stony coral some sort of planktonic food weekly will enhance color and their polyp extension.
- - Provide an aquarium placement with brighter lighting and higher, intermittent water flow
- - Provide supplemental additions of calcium, magnesium and other trace elements
- - For continued health, supplement with planktonic foods
- - Cannot tolerate copper medications
- - Prefers well-established aquariums with pristine water parameters
- - 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.
