💗🔥 Acropora millepora “Pink Reactor”
WYSIWYG Specimen – Ultra Strong Pink Millepora

🔹 Quick Stats
Care Level: Advanced
Temperament: Peaceful (requires spacing from neighbouring SPS colonies)
Colour Form: The Pink Reactor Millepora displays extremely saturated hot-pink to magenta tissue across its branching structure. Under actinic lighting the coral glows with intense neon-pink fluorescence while the dense polyps create a vibrant shimmering texture over the branches. Under balanced white lighting the colony reveals bold gradients of hot pink, raspberry and deep rose tones, producing a powerful warm-spectrum SPS that immediately stands out in reef aquariums.
Water Conditions: 24–26 °C, dKH 7.5–8.5, pH 8.0–8.4, sg 1.024–1.026
Family: Acroporidae
Lighting: High (PAR 250–350)
Water Flow: Strong and turbulent
Placement: Upper rockwork or high-energy reef zones
Type: WYSIWYG

🧬 Overview
The Acropora millepora “Pink Reactor” is a high-impact SPS coral known for its extremely intense pink coloration and dense polyp extension. Millepora corals naturally develop thick branching clusters with very active polyps, giving the colony a soft textured appearance when fully extended.

This morph produces a powerful neon pink glow under reef lighting, creating a striking contrast when placed among cooler coloured SPS such as blues and greens. As the coral grows, the branches become thicker and the colour saturation intensifies, forming a vibrant focal point within SPS-dominated aquascapes.

The combination of strong colour expression, active polyps and classic millepora growth makes this coral both visually dynamic and highly desirable for advanced SPS systems.

WYSIWYG:
You will receive the exact coral shown in the photo. Each specimen is individually photographed and selected for colour saturation, polyp extension and overall coral health.

Selected for:
• Extremely saturated hot-pink coloration
• Dense millepora polyp extension
• Strong branching growth structure
• Healthy tissue and active growth tips
• Proven colour response under reef LED lighting

🍽️ Care & Feeding
Like most Acropora millepora, Pink Reactor relies primarily on photosynthesis but benefits from nutrient-balanced reef environments and occasional coral feeding.

Recommended feeding 1–2× weekly:
• Fine plankton blends or powdered coral foods
• Amino acid supplements for SPS systems
• Broadcast feeding in mature reef systems

📈 Optimal Parameters

Parameter | Ideal Range
Alkalinity (dKH) | 7.5–8.5
Calcium (Ca) | 420–450 ppm
Magnesium (Mg) | 1300–1400 ppm
Nitrate (NO₃) | 5–15 ppm
Phosphate (PO₄) | 0.03–0.10 ppm

📍 Placement
Place in the upper aquascape where strong lighting and turbulent water flow are present. Millepora corals thrive in high-energy reef zones that promote strong polyp extension and stable skeletal growth.

Allow sufficient spacing from neighbouring SPS colonies to prevent shading and support natural branching development.
