Homewrecker

Acropora tenuis. Expert to keep, Typical PAR 200–350, high flow.

Rarity tier: ultra, reviewed 2026-08.

A rainbow A. tenuis carrying four colours at once: a green to blue base, pink corallites, yellow-orange polyps and purple growth tips. Named for what it does to a budget.

How to tell it is the real thing

Red Acropora pigments are among the least stable in the hobby. Ask how long the seller has run it, not how it looked on arrival. Four colours at once is the claim, so a two-colour colony under blues is not evidence of one.

Keeping Acropora

High light and strong random flow, up in the rockwork. Homewrecker is expert to keep at a typical PAR of 200–350 in high flow. A typical starting range for this type of coral rather than a measured requirement for this morph. Spectrum, how it was acclimated and the system it grew in all move it.

What Homewrecker goes for

No verified sales yet. A range publishes once 3 dated, checkable records from 3 different sources exist, priced per frag and reported as a median, with what shops ask kept separate from what buyers paid. One frag is a single cut on a plug, whatever its exact size. Colonies, mini colonies and mother stock are excluded rather than averaged in. Nothing on this page is for sale. Shops are typically asking $94 to $355 per frag, median $186, across 6 shops surveyed on 2026-09-07; the full sweep ran $65 to $500. Asking prices are what sellers want, not what buyers paid. On 2026-09-07 it was in stock at 6 surveyed shops: barrierreefaquariums.com, reefexclusive.com, reefofclowns.com, reeftogo.com, topshelfaquatics.com, underwater-wonders.com.
