SPS Coral. Any reef aquarium enthusiast knows that SPS reef tanks include some of the most desirable coral invertebrates available. Celebrated for their complex skeletons and vibrant hues, SPS coral  brings a dimension of architectural appeal and visual interest to reef aquariums. But they are also unforgivingly beautiful and expect precision and experience.  What is so attractive about the SPS coral is its opportunity to be very colourful and grow quite rapidly under proper conditions. These corals rely on stable levels of calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium to develop and maintain their structure. High water movement and bright lights, generally metal halides or higher-end LEDs, are also required. These are laminar flow rates that simulate the shallow reef crests where SPS coral are found.   Unlike the more lenient soft coral,  SPS coral does not take well to changes in temperature and water chemistry. That’s why experienced hobbyists who have already conquered easi...

The desire to keep corals in Canada is not what it used to be, evolving far beyond being the purview of niche hobbyists to a mainstream, thriving component of the marine aquarium sector. Aquacultured specimens and community-based know-how have made the reef aquarium hobby more accessible, even in the coldest places where naturally growing coral will never reach. While corals are available in Canada, it's crucial to run a tight ship when balancing your tank's requirements with the needs of the species you're interested in. More often than not, hobbyists will start with softies for their ability to withstand the nature of our hobby, then move up to LPS and SPS as experience is gained. Each group boasts different colours, textures and growth patterns to enable aquarists to create their underwater masterpiece.   The availability of sustainably harvested corals, especially in Canada, is improving thanks to a network of dedicated online stores and coral swaps in the reefing comm...

  SPS coral in Canada  has rapidly become the top choice for reef aquarists seeking vibrant colors and dynamic structures in their tanks. These Small Polyp Stony (SPS) corals are known for their hard skeletons made of calcium and a kaleidoscope of colors, from electric blues to fiery reds. Similar to the play of the tank (bird's nests being among the most popular), these intricate branching structures are a centerpiece of many advanced reef systems. What makes SPS coral, especially in the Canadian waterscape, very different is its requirement of precise water chemistry and strong lighting. They must keep calcium, alkalinity and magnesium stable, to ensure that the temperature is stable and to make sure the water flow is optimal. This means that SPS coral in Canada is better for the more experienced aquarist, but the rewards are definitely worth the effort. With the increasing popularity of reef keeping worldwide, domestic suppliers are carrying a wider range of SPS coral than ...

  One of the most beautiful corals for reef aquariums is the hammer coral. The Canadian Hobbyist will love the medium-light polyps and moderate care of this LPS coral in their reef setup. Water parameters are the single most important aspect of keeping hammer coral here in Canada . These corals are adapted to somewhat non-variable environments and moderate light conditions with a mild to moderate water active movement. They depend on photosynthesis and supplemental feeding, so high-quality marine foods such as phytoplankton or amino acid supplements can boost their growth and coloration. Another important consideration is the placement of hammer coral in a reef tank. It should be placed somewhere where it has plenty of room to spread out without coming into contact with other corals since it has long, flowing tentacles. This avoids aggressive, stinging interactions that might damage neighboring species. In Canada, buying hammer coral is no different; it's important to buy from ethi...
