SPS Deep Dive: Acropora millepora

by | Apr 28, 2020 | Corals, Reef | 0 comments

There are so many eye catching SPS corals in this hobby but beauty, as the saying goes, is in the eye of the beholder. Some might dig Acropora tenuis corals while others are into Acropora tortuosas. I do like many varieties of SPS but if I had to pick one group it would be Acropora milleporas.

They come in a rainbow of colors and sport long polyps that undulate in the current. Did I mention the colors? Pink corals really grab my attention and when I first started to collect SPS I was obsessed with pink millies, especially ones with yellow tips. Some of my favorite aquacultured pink specimens include the Snipers Bubblegum Mille and Rocky Mountain Diablo Millie.
