TSA Death Spiral Montipora Coral

The TSA Death Spiral Montipora Coral is a stunning example of what dedicated aquaculture can achieve. This coral is a cut to order frag, and we ensure that each piece is given up to 2 weeks for proper healing before shipping. To accommodate for its healing period, we recommend selecting a shipping date at least a week after purchase.

Frag Size: 1/2 - 3/4 inch. For optimal growth and health, mount your new coral using IC gel glue, putty, or a combination of both. It should be placed on a rock or ledge that receives direct lighting and ample flow. When it comes to feeding, Top Shelf Aquatics suggests a combination of Zooplanktons, Phytoplanktons, Amino Acids, and other Organic Proteins. A daily broadcast feeding with the return and circulation pumps off is advised to ensure the corals can adequately consume the nutrients they require.

Hard corals like the TSA Death Spiral Montipora require high water flow and high lighting to maintain proper color and health. Suitable lighting options include T5's, Metal Halides, or LED's, ensuring proper PAR levels are met. A 14-20K color spectrum is recommended for the best coloration. This coral is relatively easy to care for, requires high lighting (PAR 350 - 500), and thrives in high flow conditions.

Originating from the Indo-Pacific, this particular coral has been aquacultured in Florida by Top Shelf Aquatics, ensuring a premium-quality, sustainable coral.
