GR Toxic Green Montipora
GR Toxic Green Montipora is a striking SPS coral prized for its intense, fluorescent lime-green coloration that genuinely stands out under actinic or blue reef lighting. This encrusting or plating Montipora variety grows rapidly, creating bright, glowing patches that add a vivid pop of colour to any reef tank. Its bold hue and hardy nature make it a favourite among SPS enthusiasts seeking to brighten their reef scape.
Aquarium Care Requirements
Lighting: GR Toxic Green Montipora thrives under moderate to high lighting. Blue or actinic spectrum lighting enhances its neon yellow-green fluorescence, making it a standout in the tank.
Water Flow: Moderate to strong water flow is ideal. This helps keep the coral’s surface clean and promotes healthy encrusting or plating growth.
Placement: Place in mid-to-high areas of the tank to ensure it receives sufficient light and flow. Avoid shaded areas for optimal coloration and growth.
Feeding: While it relies mainly on photosynthesis, it can benefit from occasional feedings with fine particulate foods like Reef-Roids or amino acid supplements to support growth and coloration.
Aggression: Low aggression. GR Toxic Green Montipora is peaceful but should be given space to expand and kept away from aggressive or stinging corals.
