Its relatively slender, upright branching growth gives it the classic “Tort” appearance, becoming increasingly impressive as the colony gains size and develops more growing tips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe name “Tort” comes from \u003cem\u003eAcropora tortuosa\u003c\/em\u003e, a species associated with the distinctive branching form that became popular with early named SPS strains. However, hobby names don't reliably establish species identity, so without skeletal identification we list this colony conservatively as \u003cem\u003eAcropora\u003c\/em\u003e sp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMiyagi Tort is a classic for a reason. The combination of rich blue-purple and bright green gives it superb contrast without relying purely on fluorescence, and its upright branching shape makes a mature colony look fantastic. As a mini colony, this one already has the structure and multiple growth points that make Torts so appealing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBest suited to an established SPS reef with strong lighting, high varied flow and stable water chemistry. Consistent alkalinity is particularly important, alongside adequate calcium and magnesium to support skeletal growth. Under good conditions, strong light can help bring out the intense blue and purple colouration for which Miyagi Tort is known.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Happy Reef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53627170160976,"sku":"THRC-0090","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9552\/0848\/files\/original_4f8f8d4d-0250-4c36-a2e2-8ddb6634e8d8.jpg?v=1789682927","url":"https:\/\/www.thehappyreef.com\/products\/miyagi-tort-mini-acro-colony-110","provider":"The Happy Reef","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
