What do you love about acropora?

[ieatbugman]

Why do you like sps coral so much? Im more of a lps fan myself but i would love to hear why you love sps. Also feel free to include pics of your favorite colony

Color possibilities, but most why I like it is because it is difficult

 

[Sisterlimonpot]

...because anyone can keep lps, softies alive.

SPS keeping is the pinnacle of stability, patience and dedication.

Personaly I like the structure of sps over most of the others.

Coloring them up is a fun process; keeping them happy is rewarding; watching them fail just makes you want to try harder.

Colors and growth. This bubble gum digi is easy and rewarding.

Oddly enough, the smell!!!

There's just something about the scent that healthy acropora give off when exposed to air during water changes.

Like a fresh oyster or low tide. I love it!

Addicted to acros and my favorite corals- the colors, growth forms, and difficulty. It’s also the coloring up, growth, and difficulty why I hate them lol love hate for sure

 

[ReefingDreams]

Growth form, potential, and the challenge.

 

[Reefer Matt]

The colors and growth structure. They are the reef building corals.

Coral, growth of the coral structure. Difficulty’s of having them thrive. Going from a 3/4 inch frag to a big colony

For me it's the colors and the different growth possibilities all just from how you mount it

I love how they so quickly turn white if you look at them wrong

I know what you mean!

I love how they so quickly turn white if you look at them wrong

Turning green paper into white sticks, like magic

 

[kindafun]

I love the various colors, the structure, and the view when very close-up (enabled by a macro lens).
