Coral ID please.

[Brad Wilkins]

Hi! I was wondering if anyone can ID my corals? Most reefing shops in Western Australia sell wild colonies and do not sell with fancy names. Cheers Brad

Most wild caught corals don't have any trade names, can't give you anything beyond acropora

Species name at least, if anybody knows.

Species is acropora. One of the harder corals to keep healthy in the hobby

Isn't Acropora the Genus ? Species being the second name after Acropora. eg

• Acropora abrolhosensis
• Acropora abrotanoides
• Acropora acervata
