Emerald Freeze Acan Micromussa

(Micromussa spp.)

• Lighting: Low–moderate (50–125 PAR); colors show best under blue or actinic lighting.

• Flow: Low–moderate; gentle, indirect flow keeps polyps open and healthy.

• Water Parameters:

  • Temp: 76–80°F

  • Salinity: 1.025–1.026

  • Alkalinity: 8–9.5 dKH

  • Calcium: 400–450 ppm

  • Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm

  • Nitrate: 5–15 ppm

  • Phosphate: 0.03–0.08 ppm

• Feeding: Photosynthetic but responds very well to target feeding (mysis, brine, pellets, reef roids). Enhances growth and vibrant coloration.
