WYSIWYG*
Montipora Spongodes is a fast growing branching and encrusting sps that can tolerate a range of lighting and flow, but has been found to grow best in moderate to high lighting (PAR 150-250) with moderate to high flow. Tips and rim can become purple with higher light. SPS can be found with many different colors that can dramatically change when their environment is altered (Nutrients, Lighting, Parameter change etc). Our SPS corals are broadcast fed our Nannochloropsis phytoplankton to insure healthy tissue and color.
