The Acropora hyacintus Pink is a species of hard coral belonging to the Acroporidae family. This coral is distinguished by its long tabular branches and pink hues, ranging from pale pink to intense pink, sometimes with shades of purple or cream at the tips.
This SPS coral forms extensive tabular structures and grows rapidly under optimal conditions. Its coloration varies from light pink to deep pink with lighter tips, sometimes white or yellow, indicating active growth.
The Acropora hyacintus Pink requires intense lighting between 250 and 600 PAR to fully express its colors. A blue-dominant light spectrum between 15,000K and 20,000K is recommended to maximize fluorescence and pigment contrast.
Insufficient light can lead to a loss of coloration and browning of the coral.
A strong and irregular water flow is essential to prevent sediment accumulation on its tabular branches. The use of wide-flow pumps with random oscillation is advised to promote good water circulation.
The Acropora hyacintus Pink requires very stable water with precise parameters:
Regular testing is recommended to adjust trace elements and ensure optimal growth.
Although this coral derives most of its energy from photosynthesis through zooxanthellae, nutrient supplementation promotes its growth:
The Acropora hyacintus Pink is a not very aggressive coral, but it can be sensitive to stinging corals such as Euphyllia, Galaxea, or Hydnophora. It is recommended to leave space between colonies to avoid conflicts and promote its development.
