Description
Leptastrea Burning Ember – encrusting Leptastrea with short, densely spaced polyps.
You receive the exact specimen shown in the original photographs. Specimen 308. The photographs were taken under blue aquarium lighting; colours can look different under your own lighting.
Light and flow
Light: low to moderate; roughly 75–100 PAR as a starting range, avoiding sudden hotspots. Flow: moderate, indirect and variable to keep the surface clean.
Placement in your reef
On secure rock with room for the crust to spread, away from long-tentacled LPS.
Feeding and ongoing care
Offer small amounts of fine coral food when polyps are open.
Watch for clean growing edges. If polyps stay tightly retracted, check light and flow before relocating the frag again.
Start with small target feedings once or twice weekly if the coral accepts food; reduce feeding if nutrients rise.
Keep water conditions stable
As a general reef starting point: 24–26 °C, salinity 34–35 PSU, alkalinity 7–8.5 dKH, calcium 410–450 mg/l and magnesium 1,250–1,400 mg/l. Stability matters more than abruptly chasing a number. For this mixed-reef starting range, aim roughly for nitrate 5–15 mg/l and phosphate 0.03–0.10 mg/l, without sudden corrections. Check trends rather than reacting to a single reading.
For a consistent testing routine, see our reef water testing guide.
