Acropora Pearlberry – Electric, Ethereal, and Absolutely Hypnotic

The Acropora Pearlberry is what happens when lightning strikes the reef. This otherworldly staghorn throws electric cyan-blue branches in every direction, each one studded with deep blue polyps that look like tiny sapphires set in glowing ice. Under actinic lighting, it transforms into pure reef magic—those white-hot growth tips practically vibrate with energy while the polyps create a constellation of color that'll stop you in your tracks.

At Treasure Corals, we've dialed in the perfect recipe to make the Pearlberry absolutely explode with color. High intensity lighting brings out those signature pearl-white growing tips that fade into electric blue, while our chaotic flow pattern keeps those polyps dancing 24/7. This isn't just a coral—it's a light show that never stops performing.

When the blues hit at night, this coral becomes the undisputed centerpiece, glowing like it's powered by its own reactor.

For the reefer who wants their tank to look like it's from another planet, the Pearlberry isn't optional—it's essential. This is the coral that makes people ask, "Is that even real?"
