Green Bowerbankii Coral
Bowerbanki coral, is a rare polyp stony coral. This species is found infrequently in both the wild and the aquarium trade. It is easy to keep in an aquarium, fast growing, and grows best under moderate lighting. The Acan Hillae is often intensely colored with a mosaic of blues, reds, yellows, greens, purples, and oranges – a truly beautiful coral. Its soft tissue often looks almost splattered with color, like a Jackson Pollock painting.
- Scientific Name: Acanthastrea Hillae
- Diet: mysis and brine shrimp, and the more it is fed the faster it will grow.
- Shipping Size: 2 inches
About Green Bowerbankii Coral
Bowerbankii is a large-polyp Acanthastrea with thick, fleshy tissue that stretches over a low skeleton. It is hardy and colourful, but it is also one of the more aggressive corals in its group and will digest neighbours it touches, so leave a clear border around it. This green variety suits the sand bed or a low ledge.
