Captive breeding / propagation

The offspring of Acropora nana are possible. Unfortunately, the number of offspring is not large enough to cover the demand of the trade. If you are interested in Acropora nana, please ask your dealer for offspring. If you already own Acropora nana, try breeding yourself. This will help to improve the availability of offspring in the trade and to conserve natural stocks.

Husbandry

Characters: Colonies are compact clumps of long, non-tapering, straight, equidistant branchlets radiating from a solid base. Axial corallites are tubular with rounded margins. Radial corallites are long, tubular and appressed. The whole colony is delicate and branchlets readily break apart.
