Large Polyp Stony (LPS) vs Small Polyp Stony (SPS) Corals​



A long time ago the reef-keeping hobby separated the stony coral world into two broad categories. These categories are small polyp stony corals, or SPS and large polyp stony corals or LPS. Are these labels still helpful today?

Check out http://www.tidalgardens.com for information or if you want to buy corals for your reef tank.

Welcome to Tidal Gardens on YouTube. This channel is about all things saltwater with an emphasis on reef aquariums and propagating coral in icy cold Copley, OH. I love underwater videography and showing the incredible beauty of the coral reefs.
