The Acropora solitaryensis is a very unique acropora species. The true solitaryensis is only exported to the US market from Indonesia. The coral grows solid thick plates that are similar in shape to plating Montipora species. The difference of course is that Acropora polyps are larger in size then Montipora polyps. There are also a couple of other Acropora species similar to A. solitaryensis. One is the Acropora effluorescens and the coral we call A. soltaryensis may indeed turn out to be the A. effluorescens. The most colorful species and morph of A. solitaryensis has purple colored edges with bright green fluorescing polyps. Reeffarmers.com has recieved fragments of two Acropora solitaryensis. One from Steve Garret of Garretts Acropolis and from Shaun Monahan of ecorals.com. We are growing these out and will have captive grown fragments available starting in October 2003. Steve Tyree is maintaining these corals for reeffarmers.com in two of his 125 gallon naturally filtered Tri-Zonal EG Reef Aquariums. In Steve's captive reefs the corals are positoned from 14 to 19 inches from 400 watt 20,000 K Radium Metal Halides. Water current is moderate. ReefFarmers.com is distributing 1 farmed fragment of this coral per month. Price is currently $75 per medium sized fragment. The monthly limited edition reservation schedule can be found below. Please note effective January 2008 we have changed the harvesting and reservation schedule to bimonthly. This better matches the corals long term growth rate in captivity.
