🧬 Overview
The Acropora millepora “Strong Pink” is a highly vibrant SPS coral valued for its deep pink coloration and pronounced flowing polyp extension. This millepora morph combines intense fluorescence with the soft-textured appearance that makes millepora Acropora especially desirable in premium SPS reef aquariums.
Under blue-spectrum reef lighting, the coral glows with striking hot-pink intensity, becoming a true visual focal point within the aquarium. Its dense daytime polyp extension creates constant movement and texture, giving the colony a dynamic living appearance in strong turbulent flow.
As the colony matures, it develops compact branching growth layered with colourful polyps and vivid axial highlights. In stable mature reef systems, this coral can achieve exceptional colour saturation and rapid encrusting growth.

📈 Optimal Parameters
Parameter | Ideal Range
Alkalinity (dKH) | 7.5–8.5
Calcium (Ca) | 400–450 ppm
Magnesium (Mg) | 1250–1400 ppm
Nitrate (NO₃) | 2–15 ppm
Phosphate (PO₄) | 0.02–0.08 ppm
