An exotic looking Acropora with large flared corallite edges. Branch tips and corallite edges near the tip are colored bright pink. Lower and mid branch sections tend to be colored green. In many areas the green and pink can intermix and occur right next to each other. Some lower branch stem corallites are edged in pink and surrounded by green. Some flared corallite edges are half green and half pink. Polyp tentacles can be colored pink near the branch tips and green near the lower sections of the branch.

Reeffarmers acquired our new seed and first edition fragments directly from WT Inc.. Dan and Tina of Wet Thumbs purchased the colony late in 2009 and it was originally exported from Timor Island Indonesia. The coral was found in a reef slope area. Moderate to strong light levels are recommended. Dan and Tina also state that it is a very hardy coral.

Steve Tyree is maintaining a seed section of this coral for Reeffarmers.com in a 130 gallon Raceway Gyre BiZonal system. This system is naturally filtered with a semi-cryptic zone and a reef flat exposed zone. In Steve's captive reef the coral is positioned to receive strong to moderate light levels from a 400 watt 20,000 K Radium metal halide. The first edition fragment of this coral was sold on our Buy It Now page. Introductory list price was $150 for the small fragment.
