Before you buy one
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, not measured on this one.
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 $132 to $456 per frag, median $276, across 4 shops surveyed on 2026-10-19; the full sweep ran $75 to $625. Asking prices are what sellers want, not what buyers paid. On 2026-10-19 it was in stock at 4 surveyed shops: reefofclowns.com, reeftogo.com, topshelfaquatics.com, underwater-wonders.com.
Easily confused with
- Walt Disney: Also a four-colour tenuis. Its axial tip is blue and its polyps yellow, where a Homewrecker's tips run purple and its polyps yellow-orange. Lineage from the seller settles what colour cannot.
