Re: red Acropora
nothing special. it is just like a birdsnest. needs good lighting like a MH or T5. moderate flow

Re: red Acropora
Quote:
caring for it is basically the same as acros.High light,high flow.Just keep your calcium,alkalinity,and magnesium levels right,and it'll do great.

Re: red Acropora
I agree with Capt. That looks like a birdsnest to me.
Digitatas have much thicker "fingers". http://www.freewebs.com/troysaddicti...igitata%20.jpg http://www.coralreefecosystems.com/i...a_digitata.jpg Birdsnest look exactly like that, with the polyps spaced far apart, the pointy tips and everything. http://www.thecoralnursery.com/newsi...dsNestThin.JPG http://www.freewebs.com/troysaddicti...Aug%202006.jpg
