It develops thick, irregular branches and nodular extensions that resemble a miniature coral “tree,” gradually spreading into dense clusters over time. The “Cherry Tree” morph is especially prized for its deep cherry-red to burgundy base coloration contrasted with bright neon green or pink polyps that create a striking, fruit-like color separation across the colony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"635\" data-end=\"832\"\u003eUnder actinic or blue-spectrum lighting, the fluorescent polyps intensify significantly, giving the coral a glowing, high-contrast appearance that makes it a standout in SPS-dominated reef systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"834\" data-end=\"1507\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"834\" data-end=\"849\"\u003eCoral Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e SPS\u003cbr data-start=\"853\" data-end=\"856\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"856\" data-end=\"869\"\u003eLighting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate to High (approximately 150–300 PAR)\u003cbr data-start=\"914\" data-end=\"917\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"917\" data-end=\"931\"\u003eFlow Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate to High; strong, random flow is important to support healthy branching growth and prevent detritus buildup\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; benefits from stable water parameters and may respond well to occasional amino acid or ultra-fine SPS coral foods\u003cbr data-start=\"1240\" data-end=\"1243\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1243\" data-end=\"1258\"\u003eAggression:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peaceful; lacks sweeper tentacles but requires space due to its branching and encrusting growth pattern\u003cbr data-start=\"1362\" data-end=\"1365\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1365\" data-end=\"1379\"\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Best placed in mid to upper reef zones with strong lighting and flow where it can expand freely without shading nearby corals\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1509\" data-end=\"1863\" 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.
