🌸💎 Acropora hyacinthus “Pink” – Colonies (S / M / L)
Acropora hyacinthus – Premium Table Acropora With Pastel Pink & Neon Highlights (Aquarium-Grown Colonies)
🧬 Overview
The Acropora hyacinthus “Pink” is a delicate and highly sought-after table Acropora featuring soft pastel pink branches and glowing neon tips that form wide, plate-like structures as they grow.
Each colony is aquarium-grown and fully conditioned, providing outstanding colour stability, natural plate formation, and strong polyp extension under modern reef lighting.
Available in three size grades:
-
S (Small): Compact starter colony – ideal for quick encrusting and branch formation
-
M (Medium): Structured colony showing early table formation and rich colour development
-
L (Large): Mature show colony – established table shape and full polyp density
📸 Photos shown are examples — each colony varies slightly in plate shape and tone but all share the same pastel pink morph and high-quality health standard.
🔹 Quick Stats
Care Level: Moderate to Advanced
Temperament: Peaceful (requires space from other SPS)
Colour Form: A refined pastel pink hyacinthus with frosted white growth tips and subtle peach or coral-pink undertones. Under daylight, the coral glows with a soft pink blush; under actinic lighting, it fluoresces with a luminous candy-pink hue.
Lighting: High (PAR 250–400)
Water Flow: Strong, multidirectional
Placement: Upper to mid rockwork with open horizontal space
💡 Growth & Colour
The hyacinthus species is famous for its table-like growth, expanding laterally with thin, delicate branches.
Under stable conditions, expect:
-
wide, plate-style growth patterns
-
evenly distributed pink pigmentation
-
bright fluorescent highlights under blue and violet spectrums
Consistent trace element dosing (especially potassium and iron) enhances pink intensity and branch vitality.
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Photosynthetic but responsive to feeding. Offer:
-
amino acids and SPS microfeeds
-
fine powdered coral foods or phytoplankton (1–2× weekly)
Stable nutrient levels and strong turbulent flow promote optimal coloration and growth form.
📈 Optimal Parameters
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|---|---|
| Alkalinity (dKH) | 7.5–8.5 |
| Calcium (Ca) | 420–450 ppm |
| Magnesium (Mg) | 1250–1400 ppm |
| Nitrate (NO₃) | 2–10 ppm |
| Phosphate (PO₄) | 0.02–0.08 ppm |
📍 Placement
Place in high light and alternating flow to promote horizontal plate expansion.
Allow plenty of space above and around the colony — hyacinthus will spread outward more than vertically.
