The Pink Floyd Acropora (Acropora microclados / Acropora sp.)—originally lineaged by Reef Raft (RR)—is one of the most iconic, high-contrast Small Polyp Stony (SPS) corals in the modern reef hobby. Celebrated for its electrifying neon color profile, this legendary collector piece features a radiant radioactive yellow-to-lime-green coenosteum, contrasting sharply with intense magenta-pink-to-red polyp tentacles and bright pink axial growth tips.
Coloration: Radioactive neon-yellow to vibrant chartreuse skeletal tissue, crowned with glowing pink axial tips and densely dotted with magenta-pink to bright red polyps.
Growth Pattern: Corymbose / Tabling Branching (develops a dense, encrusting base structure before pushing out short, tightly clustered vertical branches that spread laterally into a flat table).
Lighting: High to Very High (PAR 300–450).
Water Flow: Very High (Strong, randomized turbulent current).
Feeding: Photosynthetic; extends polyps to capture liquid amino acids, fine micro-plankton powders, and SPS particulate feeds.
Aggressiveness: Peaceful / Defenseless (lacks stinging sweeper tentacles; highly vulnerable to stings from neighboring aggressive corals).
Care Level: Advanced / Expert (Requires pristine, ultra-stable water chemistry, intense light, and strong flow to maintain its bright neon hues).
