Acropora Loripes Acro. of the month July!
Acropora LoripesCoral Family:AcroporidaeCoral Genus:AcroporaCoral Species:LoripesCommon Name:None knownCommon Morphologies:Branching (arborescent)Origin:Pacific OceanLighting Requirements:High. Direct metal halide lighting is strongly recommended for optimum growth rate and coloration.Flow Requirements:Strong indirect or nearly direct flowAvailability:ModerateDifficulty:Advanced

(Taken from www.easyreefer.com)


I have one of these now, and really love this SPS. It is a thick acro that loves alot of light, and some serious flow. I bought my 1-2 inch frag on ebay, and had a bad mishap. The Acro sat in Oakland, CA for 3 days at an airport!! Ouch!
Well folks I am happy to say it is going strong, and doing very well!!

Enjoy the SPS of the month!!

Loripes is a really nice Acro. I had one for about two years, and then it just up, and RTN'd. Gotta love SPS =)
