What you see is what ships
These photos are taken under actinic blue light, which is how the coral looks in a reef tank at night. Under full daylight the colors read warmer and less saturated. This exact piece is the one that ships to you, no substitutions.

About this piece
Red brown body with brilliant green polyps that stand up at feeding time and change the whole look of the branch. Wide branching and forgiving as acros go, one of the few that still looks right in the middle of the rock. It browns out fast if nitrate falls to zero, so do not starve the tank chasing numbers.
