Care Level for Psammocora Coral
Ease of Care: Easy to Moderate. Psammocora is a hardy and adaptable genus of small polyp stony (SPS) corals, making it a good choice for both novice and experienced reef aquarium hobbyists.
Lighting: Moderate to High. Psammocora corals thrive under moderate to high lighting conditions. LED or T5 fluorescent lighting systems that provide a broad spectrum are ideal to support their growth and maintain vibrant coloration.
Water Flow: Moderate to Strong. These corals benefit from moderate to strong water flow, which aids in nutrient delivery, waste removal, and helps prevent algae growth on their surfaces.
Water Parameters: Stability in water conditions is crucial for the health of Psammocora corals. Aim to maintain temperatures between 76Ā°F and 82Ā°F (24-28Ā°C), pH of 8.1-8.4, and specific gravity of 1.025-1.026. Regular monitoring and adjustments to maintain calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels are also important for their skeletal growth.
Dietary Needs: Psammocora corals are primarily photosynthetic, relying on the symbiotic algae (zooxanthellae) within their tissues for nutrition. However, they can benefit from supplemental feeding to enhance their growth and coloration.
Recommended Foods: Feeding with fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton, zooplankton, and specially formulated coral foods can supplement their diet and promote healthier growth.
Feeding Frequency: Supplemental feeding 2-3 times a week can be beneficial, though Psammocora corals can also thrive with minimal direct feeding due to their efficient photosynthetic capabilities.
What Our Clients Say About Us
Just got my first order in. Came the next day. Packaging was perfectly done and better than many other coral dealers. Each was clearly ID'd in specimen jars with care instructions for each one individually. The prior day I hadn't specified a delivery date (which is a great feature) and they called me to verify. Absolutely flawless experience and I'll be back. Really reasonable prices on corals as well. Worth every penny.
100% recommended, I had doubts about buy corals on line, but I trusted in Riptide Aquaculture and Iām satisfied with my choice, excellent service, All corals arrived in good conditions, good colors, and good shape.
Excellent coral buying experience. All four corals arrived intact, each was packed in sufficient water and tripled bagged. Shipped from florida to california in 24 hrs. Communication was excellent and they adjusted delivery date per my request.
I just ordered 9 coral during Riptides recent reef2reef tiki sale. I requested they be delivered on a set day, but they realized that it may be too cold for shipping so they requested that it be moved out a week. The following week they shipped on time and the packaging was excellent. Heat pack inside the styrofoam box kept the coral warm in transit and each coral was triple bagged. They all were healthy and looked great when they arrived. One was kind of small, but I canāt really complain as it was only $5 during the sale. Overall I was very pleased with the entire process. I would highly recommend them.
Really fun buying during the Tiki Torch Sale! (That may be the wrong name š¤·). Regardless, the sale was a ton of fun and I got some really amazing pieces for a crazy good price. They had crazy $5 specials, just had to be fast enough. You could win three of them, and you have to buy three at discounted prices. Really awesome selection, got way more than three at the prices they had. Really great shipping, worked around my schedule. Due to weather delays, several orders came in today so I received about 35 pieces total. The packaging was really well done and getting these guys settled into the tank was a breeze. All of them are mostly out in just a couple of hours. So awesome! Not a single complaint for these guys! Will be back for the next sale.
I was super nervous about buying corals online, but Riptide blew me away with their service. The corals were triple bagged with identification labels with care instructions for each coral. They were also attached to tiny plastic cups to keep them from rolling around in the bag. The bags were placed in a styrofoam container inside the box. Everything looked great and so far they are looking quite happy in my tank. I would not hesitate to order from them again! Iām so happy that I met Mitch and Mason at Aqua Mania in Pittsboro, NC! Otherwise, I wouldnāt have been as eager to order online. Great service and they are always available to answer questions. Thanks guys!
