A Word About the Coral

TIA Woolly Mammoth Millepora is instantly recognizable for its exceptionally long polyp extension. The extended polyps give the colony a thick, shaggy appearance that resembles coarse wool, which is exactly what gives this coral its “Woolly Mammoth” character.

The color contrast is equally striking. The coral shows a vivid red to pink branch surface paired with long green polyps, creating a strong red-and-green visual impact that is difficult to forget.

When fully extended, the combination of heavy texture and bold color contrast gives this Millepora a very dramatic look in the reef tank. It is an excellent choice for collectors who want a coral with both standout polyp extension and memorable coloration.

Care Requirements

Lighting

Moderate to High PAR (250–400). Strong blue-spectrum reef lighting helps enhance the red branch coloration and highlight the long green polyps.

Water Flow

Moderate to Strong, turbulent flow. Randomized circulation supports healthy tissue growth, keeps the coral clean, and encourages strong polyp extension.

Placement

Best placed in the upper half of a mature reef aquarium where stable water parameters, strong lighting, and consistent flow support SPS coral growth.

• Temperature: 76–79°F
• Salinity: 1.025–1.026
• Alkalinity: 8–9 dKH
