🧬 Overview

The Family Adams Acropora millepora is an exclusive collector SPS distinguished by its rare pastel lavender colouration and exceptional elegance. Unlike intensely fluorescent Millepora varieties, this coral is prized for its refined soft-purple hues, offering a sophisticated appearance that stands out in any premium SPS collection.

As the colony matures, it develops a dense branching structure covered in long, flowing polyps that create the signature velvety texture for which Millepora corals are renowned. Under blue-spectrum lighting, the delicate lavender branches take on a luminous violet glow while maintaining their subtle pastel character.

Exclusively selected for its unique colour palette and excellent growth potential, this coral is a superb choice for experienced reef keepers seeking uncommon and refined SPS specimens.

Selected for:

• • Exclusive Family Adams collector lineage
• • Rare pastel lavender-purple colouration
• • Exceptional daytime polyp extension
• • Elegant velvety Millepora growth
• • Premium WYSIWYG collector specimen

🍽️ Care & Feeding

Although primarily photosynthetic, Acropora millepora benefits from regular feeding of fine suspended foods and amino acid supplementation to maximise colour development, skeletal growth, and polyp extension.

Recommended feeding:

• • Reef Roids and fine powdered coral foods
• • Zooplankton-based SPS foods
• • Amino acid supplements
• • Live or preserved phytoplankton as part of a balanced feeding regime

Maintaining stable alkalinity and low but measurable nutrient levels is essential to preserve its delicate pastel colouration.

📈 Optimal Parameters

📍 Placement

Position in the upper regions of the aquarium where it receives high-intensity lighting and strong, turbulent water movement. Stable water chemistry and consistent flow are essential to maintain its exclusive pastel-purple pigmentation and encourage compact, healthy branching.
