🧬 Overview

The Fusion Tenuis Acropora is an exceptional collector morph that merges warm golden pigment with cool silver-grey patterning, producing a balanced yet dramatic two-tone aesthetic.

Its structured branching form and metallic sheen make it a centrepiece among high-end SPS collections. Under blue light, the coral’s base emits a gentle neon glow, while the grey striping reveals a unique layered depth rarely seen in Acropora tenuis species.

Perfect for reefers seeking elegance over excess — a coral that’s both understated and unforgettable.

🍽️ Care & Feeding

Entirely photosynthetic but benefits from amino acid and trace element supplementation to sustain its metallic tones and maintain polyp extension.

Feed once weekly with fine particulate coral foods such as Reef Roids, and maintain stable parameters to preserve the delicate pigmentation balance between yellow and grey.

📈 Optimal Parameters

📍 Placement

Place in upper reef areas with high light and variable flow to enhance colour separation and ensure even branch development. Avoid shading or low-flow spots that can dull the metallic contrast.
