Colour Form: The “Pikachu” Acropora is defined by its intense electric-yellow base combined with warm orange highlights spreading across the branches and growth tips. Under actinic lighting, the yellow tissue glows with extreme fluorescence while the orange pigments ignite into vivid tangerine tones. Under balanced white lighting, the coral reveals a bold gradient of lemon yellow, golden hues and soft orange accents, creating a high-energy colour profile.
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 250–400)
Water Flow: High, turbulent flow
Placement: Upper reef
Type: WYSIWYG Specimen
🧬 Overview
The Acropora “Pikachu” is a standout SPS coral known for its explosive yellow coloration and warm orange contrast. Its branching structure creates a bright, energetic presence in the reef, instantly drawing attention even among high-end SPS collections.
Under blue spectrum lighting, the fluorescence becomes extremely intense, making the coral appear almost glowing from within. Growth tips often intensify in colour, enhancing contrast and giving the colony a dynamic, evolving look.
This WYSIWYG specimen offers immediate visual impact and collector-grade colour straight from the start.
🧾 WYSIWYG
You will receive the exact coral shown in the photo, selected for colour intensity, polyp extension and structural balance.
Selected for:
• Extreme electric-yellow fluorescence
• Warm orange highlights and growth tips
• Strong branching structure
• High-impact SPS colouration
• Collector-grade WYSIWYG specimen
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Acropora rely primarily on photosynthesis but benefit from stable nutrient support.
Recommended support:
• Stable nitrate and phosphate levels
• Amino acids and trace element supplementation
• Occasional broadcast feeding of fine plankton
