Goldenrod Anacropora

Anyone have any frags of this? I see pieces go up on the Pieces of the Ocean auction all the time and I’m tempted but they always look super pale in his pictures. Anyone buy this coral from him before and have luck?

I believe this. I had a nub and it did not do well. My tank is at 5 ppm nitrate

That’s interesting. I keep nutrients closer to 10/ .1 so I would like to see if that makes a difference.

Where I placed it was near a slimeball anacropora, an electric lemonade anacropora, and tnt anacropora (all of which are doing great). All of those are around 200 par

Goldenrod Anacropora keeps this Genus in the Spotlight | Reef Builders | The Reef and Saltwater Aquarium Blog

Anacropora has always been one of our favorite lesser-known groups of stony corals and Reef Raft Canada is again giving us another reason to love this sister genus to Montis and Acros.

If you find an extra one let me know! Lol it's on my list also! I seen this nice article to share from Reef Builders. Make sure you get the right strain. I have seen some species labeled as the golden rod but it doesn't have the reddish pink polyps.

I have managed to score a nub of the Tropicana Anacropora. (Yellow with tealish polyps.) About a week ago. Fingers crossed it does well in my tank. Lol
