LT Neon Green Candy Cane Coral Care Guide
LT Neon Green Candy Cane Coral is a branching LPS coral that adapts well to moderate reef conditions when its tissue has room to inflate.
- Care level
- Easy to moderate
- Suggested PAR
- 50–150
- Water flow
- Low to moderate
- Placement
- Lower to middle reef
- Aggression
- Medium
- Feeding
- Optional, up to weekly
What LT Neon Green Candy Cane Coral needs
Place the coral where each head can inflate without rubbing rock or neighboring colonies. Moderate indirect flow should keep the tissue moving slightly. Small meaty food can support growth but is not required in a well-fed reef.
Stable water targets
Use these as a steady operating range, not numbers to chase from day to day.
- Temperature
- 76–79°F
- Salinity
- 1.025–1.026 SG
- Alkalinity
- 8–9 dKH
- Calcium
- 420–450 ppm
- Magnesium
- 1300–1400 ppm
- Nitrate
- 5–15 ppm
- Phosphate
- 0.03–0.10 ppm
How to acclimate LT Neon Green Candy Cane Coral
- 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.
LT Neon Green Candy Cane Coral care questions
Where should I place LT Neon Green Candy Cane Coral?
Start at Lower to middle reef. Leave room for growth and move the coral only after observing its response to the current position.
How much flow does LT Neon Green Candy Cane Coral 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 LT Neon Green Candy Cane Coral?
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.
