Bushy (Caespitose) SPS Corals

The bushy coral morphology contains one of the most prized species of most advanced reef aquarium hobbyists, the blue Acropora Tortuosa (commonly called the Blue Tort). Although now more available, the Blue Tort still demands a high price. Bushy corals are called so due to an apparently random array of branches originiating at a central point. The morphology of bushy corals can be an asset when aquascaping, as their growth patterns do tend to be somewhat more predictable than some other morphs.

Acropora Austera*	Acropora Cerealis	Acropora Divaricata	Acropora Loripes
Acropora Lovelli	Acropora Selago	Acropora Tortuosa	Acropora Valida
