🔹 Overview
The Acropora millepora “Ultra Pink” is a spectacular SPS coral prized for its exceptionally vibrant pink coloration and distinctive, densely extended polyps.
Its remarkable combination of intense pink, rose and magenta tones creates an eye-catching display, bringing a beautiful splash of colour to any established reef aquarium.
Unlike smoother branching Acropora species, Millepora corals develop a characteristic fuzzy texture due to their abundant, elongated polyps, creating an attractive sense of movement throughout the colony.
As the frag matures, it develops an elegant branching structure, becoming a stunning centrepiece in dedicated SPS collections.

🔹 Care & Feeding
Acropora millepora thrives in mature, stable reef aquariums with moderate to high lighting and strong, variable water movement.
Provide turbulent, indirect flow to keep the colony free from detritus and encourage healthy polyp extension.
Maintain consistent alkalinity, calcium and magnesium levels, avoiding sudden fluctuations that may cause stress or tissue recession.
Gradually acclimate new frags to stronger lighting to preserve their intense pink pigmentation and prevent light stress.
Although primarily photosynthetic, occasional feeding with fine particulate coral foods, amino acids and plankton-based nutrition may support healthy tissue development, polyp extension and growth.
Balanced nutrient levels are essential for maintaining vibrant coloration. Avoid excessively nutrient-poor conditions, which may result in pale tissue and reduced vitality.
🔹 Recommended Parameters
Temperature: 24–26 °C
Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG
Alkalinity: 7.5–8.5 dKH
Calcium: 400–450 ppm
Magnesium: 1250–1400 ppm
Nitrate: 2–10 ppm
Phosphate: 0.03–0.10 ppm
🔹 Placement & Compatibility
Ideally positioned in the middle to upper sections of the reef aquarium, where it receives moderate to high lighting and strong, random water movement.
Allow sufficient space for future branching growth and avoid direct contact with neighbouring corals.
Under stable aquarium conditions, this Millepora develops beautiful polyp extension and increasingly rich pink pigmentation, creating a spectacular display of colour and movement.
