Mint Melt Acan Enchinata

About this coral

ASD Mint Melt Acan Enchinata is a named aquarium-shop listing for an Acanthastrea echinata-type LPS coral. The name identifies the coral group, but does not establish this individual’s exact species or color traits. It can add a fleshy, stony coral to a mature reef aquarium. The care notes below are general guidance for the group, not verified requirements specific to this named variety.

Features:

• Acan echinata-type corals are large-polyp stony corals; their fleshy polyp surfaces contrast with their hard skeletons.
• Provide moderate lighting as a general starting point, and observe the coral’s response when adjusting its position or light exposure.
• Moderate water movement helps keep water circulating around the coral without directing a harsh, concentrated current at its tissue.
• This group can be aggressive toward nearby corals. Leave room around it and account for potential reach when positioning it in the reef.
• Meaty marine foods may be offered as supplemental feeding; feeding response and frequency can vary between individual corals.

Specifications:

• Type: LPS coral; Acanthastrea echinata-type group identification, not a confirmed species or morph.
• Care level: General group guidance: moderate; stable reef conditions and observation are important.
