Please note, this is a cut to order frag. If we do not have one prepped, please allow up to 2 weeks for healing. We recommend selecting a shipping date at least a week away from purchase. Frag Size is approximately 1/2 inch. For optimal growth and health, mount your new coral using IC gel glue, putty, or a combination of both on a rock or ledge that receives direct lighting and ample flow.

Feeding: Top Shelf Aquatics recommends feeding birdsnest corals with a combination of foods like Zooplanktons, Phytoplanktons, Amino Acids, and other Organic Proteins. A daily broadcast feeding while return and circulations pumps are stopped will ensure the corals have the ability to consume the nutrients they require.

Lighting & Flow: Moderate to high water flow and moderate lighting are required to maintain proper color and growth. Suitable lighting options include T5’s, Metal Halides, or LEDs, provided the correct PAR levels are maintained. An 18-20K color spectrum is recommended for the best coloration.
