WYSIWYG* Pectinia Alcicornis is a great easy LPS coral. This bright one is the most popular variations of pectinia and is a must have, eye catching showpiece! It is best to give these corals some space in the tank as they can send out long sweeper tentacles when feeding. The pectinia prefers low-moderate lighting (PAR 80-150) with low-moderate flow. While this species has done well in captivity, it is listed as vulnerable on the endangered charts. This piece is locally aquacultured,.
