Description

Tina’s Pink Orgasm Acropora is another exotic Acropora from the coral collection at Wet Thumbs. Branches are colored a pastel pink that turns into a violet pastel blue near the tips. Corallites can also develop bright fluorescent green edges. Polyps are tiny and tentacles are bright white. We have actually seen corals exported from Fiji that had similar colorations, but those were very difficult to adapt to captivity. The Reeffarmers Acropora microclados Multicolor LE from Fiji is similar to this coral, but polyps are not colored white, corallite edges do not develop green and branch tip color is different.
