Hairy acros

[NitrateKillah]

Show me your hairy acros, names if you can. Planning to get a few down the road and like to know the names.

I don't care for the Brazilian waxed versions.

Red planet, Walt Disney, anything with ‘tenius’ or ‘millepora’ should fit your needs :)

This is @ycnibrc ’s “Star is Born” “Millepora”, I fragged a huge chunk off cuz it was shading out my Somewhere Over the Rainbow mille, glued it to a tile, and threw it at the bottom of the tank. It’s even hairier than it ever was, and even then it was hairy.

huge chunk:

Partial colony shot:

the mother colony is already super happy and has grown into an impressive colony, but the polyps in even higher flow are amazing.

That is wicked!

Very nice but the OP asked for hairy Acroporas, not milleporas.

a millie is a type of acro, just like your tenuis

I know. I’m just giving him a hard time.

Millis are by far the most hairiest and most reliable to be hairy in any tank.

ASD Rainbow Milli

Horridas are very hairy as well.

Most common available horrida is probably the ORA purple plasma

In this video you can see a white lightning horrida and small milli on the left. These aren't yet at full polyp extension but gives you a good idea how hairy they are.

Just a little guy but this thing is always fuzzy. Not sure what it is got it in a trade, maybe A. Vermiculata?

Even my Millepora are not hairy. I must be doing everything wrong. I dream of the day of hairy beasts filling my tank. These pics are great.
