Gator Acan Enchinata – Multiples Available

About this coral

Gator Acan Enchinata – Multiples Available is an LPS (large-polyp stony) coral selection for reef aquariums, typically kept for its fleshy, inflated polyps and bold surface texture. In practice, this coral is used as a centerpiece accent that adds shape and character to the reef—often contrasting well with branching SPS, flatter LPS, and sand-sweeping habitats—while still being approachable for many hobbyists when stable water conditions and suitable flow are provided.

Features:

• LPS coral with large, fleshy, inflated polyps that add strong visual texture to a reef
• General LPS-friendly lighting: usually suited to low to moderate reef illumination (with gradual acclimation)
• Generally prefers low to moderate, indirect flow to avoid tissue stress
• Can benefit from regular target feeding of appropriately sized meaty foods
• Helps create natural-looking coral spacing; allow room for sweeper reach compared with neighboring corals
• Hand-selected live coral from available stock (individual frag appearance can vary)
• Best results come from consistent water chemistry and stable tank conditions

Specifications:

• Care level (general group guidance): Easy to moderate for established reef tanks
• Lighting (general guidance): Low to moderate reef lighting; acclimate gradually
• Water flow (general guidance): Low to moderate, indirect flow; avoid direct blasting
• Feeding (general guidance): Target feed with small meaty coral foods (e.g., mysis/LPS foods)
• Temperature: ~75–80°F
• Salinity: ~1.025–1.026 specific gravity
• Calcium: ~420–450 ppm
• Alkalinity: ~8–9 dKH
• Magnesium: ~1300–1400 ppm
