Hey Everyone,

One of the best things about our business is that we have the opportunity to get other hobbyists excited about corals that we love! Well, if you ask me, one of my all time faves is definitely Acropora millepora. This beautiful, diversely-colored, and well-polyped species is a no-brainer for the "SPS" fanatic. Relatively undemanding, quite hardy, and undeniably appealing! Bright light, good, stable water chemistry/quality and moderate to strong water movement, as well as regular feedings, almost assures you of success with this species, in our experience.

We work with sustainably-collected wild colonies from Australia, and offer a few small-colony-sized wild pieces, as well as frags that we have propagated from our favorite mother colonies. We also offer "Millie" frags for a number of trussed domestic propagators. As with all of our frags, we'll only offer hand-selected, fully-encrusted frags in great health, so that you'll get the best possible start with them.

Here are just a few examples of some of our favorite "Millies" currently offered on the UC website:

"Pink Millie" - Not currently available; We will be making frags from this mother colony again soon.


These are just a few examples of the many Acropora millepora variants that we offer, and will be offering in the weeks ahead. If you are a "Millie" fan, or arte becoming one- you'll definitely want to keep checking our offerings!

Looking forward to a week of cool updates on our website, with some awesome new WYSIWYG corals available tomorrow. Keep checking back- you never know what might turn up!

Have a great weekend!

regards,

Scott and Joe

Good stuff. I remember buying a Platnium Prostata from you guys at Reef-a-Palooza and that acro is super hairy.
