Shaggy Acropora – Wild Texture, Untamed Energy

The Shaggy Acro is a standout for its extra-long, flowing polyps that give it a fuzzy, windswept appearance unlike any other Acropora. With a vibrant green to teal base and feathery, extended polyps that sway in the current, this coral delivers raw, untamed motion and serious reef presence.

Under high PAR and strong, turbulent flow, Shaggy Acro develops thick, upright branches that remain covered in fuzz—giving it a wild look while still maintaining the structure and strength of a classic Acro. It’s a favorite among reefers who want serious texture with serious growth.
