This Acropora tenuis is a high-end SPS piece prized for its thick, smooth branches and vividly contrasting polyp colours. Known for producing some of the reefing world’s most iconic colour morphs, tenuis displays incredible fluorescence under blue LED lighting, often showing blues, teals, yellows, or vibrant multicolour tips depending on the strain.
As a WYSIWYG coral, the exact piece shown in the photo is the one you will receive — ensuring you get the true coloration and structure you see.
Care Requirements:
• Lighting: High PAR (250–400+), strong blue spectrum intensifies colour and tip definition.
• Flow: Strong, alternating or turbulent flow to maintain polyp extension and prevent detritus buildup.
• Placement: Upper to mid reef, with space for outward radial growth.
• Feeding: Responds well to occasional feeding of fine SPS foods and amino acids.
• Water Parameters: Stable SPS conditions (Alk 8–9 dKH, Ca 420–450 ppm, Mg 1300–1400 ppm, NO₃ 5–10 ppm, PO₄ 0.03–0.08 ppm).
A standout choice for SPS collectors who want vibrant colour, dynamic growth, and top-tier fluorescence — exactly as pictured.
