Yes indeed. The Tyree Sunset is my all-time favorite montipora coral. It is just so vibrantly colorful. ;)

Sunset Millepora is pretty nice, but it has green in it too.

I appreciate the kind words my friend! The Orange Crush is just stunning to see in person and grows very well too when happy. :)

And the ACRO GOD speaks among mortals lol !!!!

Amazing Tim !!! Your Orange Crush is probably one of my all time favorite classics .

Abhishek

IME a. millepora are your best bet to get an orange acropora (although that orange envy is epic, hadn't seen that).

RMF Acid Trip, ASD Rainbow Milli, SC Orange Stik, BC Schizopolis Sunset are good options, however all have some green etc too. The only two straight up orange millis I have seen recently for purchase are:

1. BC I eat 2 oranges a day no lie
2. A no name orange milli from a pack I almost bought from Gonzos corals (so I assume he has some frags (upper right).

They look pretty similar. Orange body with dark orange/brown polyps.

Obligatory setosa shot. More light-more orange.

My bubblegum digitata obviously isn’t an acro, but it’s stony and the most orange SPS in my tank. Much brighter than the regular orange digi.

I have one millepora that is real bright orange. It was sold to me as RMF acid trip but has turned all orange with yellow tips. Not for sale but you can try looking for RMF acid trip and see how it turns out for you.

That thing is amazing! Nice sticks!

What size tank is this? How high up off the water do you have it and last how high do you have the power turned up.

I have my lights about 12inches off the water. I run the kessil ap 700 with four t-5’s
I ramp mine up and run them about 50 to 55% with red and green at 20%. My tank is a 120gal a 24/24/48.
