Low to Medium

Ease of Care:

  Special Requirements and Information:
Acanthastrea faviaformis should be placed medium to low in the tank. Since they don't require bright light, they are a perfect and colorful addition to balance your colorful acropora. Begin low in the tank until they become acclimated and then move them where you want. Good light will force brighter colors on the faviaformis, but too hot a light source can harm them.
Feed anytime during the day. Once they're accustomed to your tank, they can be introduced to frozen foods such as chopped blood worms, artemia or squid. Place the defrosted food directly over the Acan.
Faviaformis are colony formers, so don't be surprised if new bodies form.
