Collection: Pocillopora & Stylophora
Pocillopora and Stylophora are two common genera of small-polyped stony (SPS) corals that are popular in the aquarium hobby due to their vibrant colors and intricate growth patterns.
In terms of care requirements, these corals generally prefer high water flow and intense lighting, as they are photosynthetic organisms that rely on light for energy. They also require stable water parameters, including appropriate levels of calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium.
One notable feature of these corals is their rapid growth, which can make them great options for filling in space in a new aquarium or for aquarists who enjoy watching their corals grow and expand. However, their fast growth can also mean that they require frequent trimming or fragging to prevent them from overtaking other corals in the tank.
