Mason Ciarpella - 2018-12-24 I was wondering if you had a piece of stag horn coral in it’s natural golden tan color. I’m not a huge fan of all the bright green or deep purple specimens I usually find. Also if you do have the color stag I’m looking for I’m probably not going to be buying it for a couple of years because the tank it’s going to go in is currently somebody else’s, so it’s going to be a long process of getting it to my house and then starting the system back up.
satrajit - 2011-05-07 It's difficult to keep in a tank. Strong light. Need strong water flow. It requires ideal calcium, magnesium, strontium for live and requires accurate water testing equipment. mainly white band disease can attack stag horn coral. Always take precaution to prevent disease, only a expat can keep this type coral in the tank.

Charlie Roche - 2011-05-09 Thank you for the information. Doesn't sound like an easy thing to do. Any suggestions?
[email protected] - 2014-01-12 I have a different experience, not so difficult to keep and in my tank I have this very coral shown in their picture under 4 54 watt T5 and it grows an 1” a month. Lot’s of flow is needed
A primary reef-building coral, the Staghorn Coral holds the most important job in the Western Atlantic reefs!
