It grows as smooth, layered plates or thick encrusting sheets that gradually spread across rockwork, creating a colorful, structured surface. The “Apple Berry” morph is especially prized for its fruity mix of tones—typically featuring bright apple-green base tissue contrasted with berry-like accents of pink, purple, or red polyps that create a speckled, high-contrast appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"645\" data-end=\"831\"\u003eUnder actinic or blue-spectrum lighting, the fluorescent pigments intensify significantly, giving the colony a glowing, fruit-toned display that stands out in SPS-dominated reef systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"1499\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"848\"\u003eCoral Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e SPS\u003cbr data-start=\"852\" data-end=\"855\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"855\" data-end=\"868\"\u003eLighting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate to High (approximately 150–300 PAR)\u003cbr data-start=\"913\" data-end=\"916\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"916\" data-end=\"930\"\u003eFlow Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate to High; strong, random flow promotes healthy growth and prevents detritus accumulation on plating surfaces\u003cbr data-start=\"1047\" data-end=\"1050\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1050\" data-end=\"1072\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eFood Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Primarily photosynthetic via symbiotic zooxanthellae; may benefit from occasional amino acid supplementation or ultra-fine SPS coral foods\u003cbr data-start=\"1211\" data-end=\"1214\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1214\" data-end=\"1229\"\u003eAggression:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peaceful; does not possess sweeper tentacles but requires space due to encrusting and plating growth patterns\u003cbr data-start=\"1339\" data-end=\"1342\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1342\" data-end=\"1356\"\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Best placed on stable rockwork in mid to upper reef zones with strong lighting and flow where it can expand freely without shading neighbors\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1501\" data-end=\"1855\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eWe maintain a rigorous, veterinarian-approved quarantine program that includes proactive treatments, careful observation, and daily monitoring to ensure the highest standards of coral and invertebrate health.
