Acropora, Acropora sp., are found in a variety of shapes but are most commonly seen in the traditional elongated branch form. It is a hermatypic (reef-building) coral that forms large structures in the wild. It requires high lighting levels and high water flow. Depending on the individual aquarium characteristics (lighting, water flow), it may do fine at any level of the aquarium. It is typically seen in its brown, green, or grey variations, but blue, pink, purple and yellow varieties do exist. With proper water conditions, which include high calcium and carefully monitored calcium levels with the addition of strontium, members of the Acropora family grow very quickly. Acropora will benefit from feedings of any supplement designed for filter feeders.
