Red Polyp Lime Acropora Coral Frag

Red Polyp Lime Acropora, Acropora sp., is a branching stony coral known for its compact upright growth, prominent corallites, and strong reef-building structure. This WYSIWYG frag features bright lime-green tissue with contrasting reddish to darker polyp accents, giving it a vivid two-tone appearance under reef lighting. Acropora corals are popular with reef hobbyists because they add branching structure, color, and natural reef texture to mature aquariums with stable conditions. Care Guide: Acropora sp. generally does best in moderate to high lighting and strong, indirect, turbulent water flow. Provide enough flow to keep the branches clean and support healthy polyp extension, but avoid a harsh direct blast. Place this frag on stable upper to mid-level rockwork where it has room to branch outward and upward. Maintain very stable alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, salinity, temperature, and nutrients, as Acropora corals are sensitive to rapid parameter swings. This coral is photosynthetic and does not require target feeding, though it may benefit from fine particulate coral foods and stable nutrient availability in a mature reef system.
