FAQ
Leptoseris, or “wrinkle corals,” are small polyp stony (SPS) corals that are part of the Agariciidae family. Although there are variations, they are generally encrusting corals.
Leptoseris like low to moderate lighting in the range of 120 – 250 par.
Leptoseris coral are not hard to keep getting most of their food from their symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic zooxanthellae. Occasional target feeding with Mysis or brine shrimp may be helpful.
Water flow should be moderate for Leptoseris as it keeps the coral free of detritus and brings it food. But, it is best to keep the flow indirect as too much flow can damage the coral and make it hard for it to get food.
Leptoseris corals can be semi-aggressive. Best to give them a couple of inches from other coral.
Water Quality: PH 8.0 – 8.4, Nitrate 5 – 30 (best to keep it stable), Phosphate 0.05 – 0.2, Alkalinity 8 – 9 dKh, and Calcium 400 – 450.
