Monti setosa 1” frag

🔥 Montipora Setosa Care Guide

• 💡 Lighting: Moderate to high (150–250 PAR) – too much light may bleach, but needs brightness to pop

• 🌊 Flow: Moderate to strong – keeps tissue clean and promotes healthy growth

• 📍 Placement: Mid to upper rockwork; encrusting/plating growth form

• 🧪 Parameters:

  • Temp: 76–78°F 🌡️

  • Salinity: 1.025

  • dKH: 8–9

  • Calcium: 420–450 ppm

  • Magnesium: 1300+ ppm

• 🍽️ Feeding: Primarily photosynthetic, but benefits from occasional broadcast feeding (e.g., reef roids)

• 🌈 Coloration: Bright orange-red flesh, smooth texture – color deepens with stable parameters

• 🧼 Notes: Grows slower than most encrusting montis – great for adding contrast to your scape

📦 Not WYSIWYG – each frag will vary slightly in shape and growth stage.
