White coral ACROPORA HUMILIS round base
CO695-1
This standing white coral is made of hundreds of fingers looking a bit like a Romanesco cabbage. The Acropora Humilis is a strong coral living close from the surface as it requires the sun light to grow. It needs to be strong, to resist to the waves. Alive it is not a bright colored species, usually off-white, it can also be seen with some light purple polyps. But the details of its skeletton, on a brass base is just amaizing. Delivered with a Cites number, as a protected species.
