How to acclimate TSA Mr. Freeze Leptoseris
- Inspect the bag and coral on arrival. Photograph any shipping concern before opening the bag, then follow the store's live-arrival instructions.
- Match temperature, inspect the coral under white light, and use a coral dip that is appropriate for the coral group. Do not add shipping water to the display.
- Begin below the final light intensity for the first several days. Move or raise intensity gradually while watching tissue and polyp response.
TSA Mr. Freeze Leptoseris care questions
Where should I place TSA Mr. Freeze Leptoseris?
Start at Lower reef or partial shade. Leave room for growth and move the coral only after observing its response to the current position.
How much flow does TSA Mr. Freeze Leptoseris need?
Use Low to moderate flow. The goal is steady gas exchange and debris removal without folded tissue, exposed skeleton, or polyps held in one direction.
Should I feed TSA Mr. Freeze Leptoseris?
Recommended frequency: Optional, up to weekly. Feed only when the coral shows a response, use appropriately sized food, and remove uneaten food before it irritates the tissue.
