Acropora cerealis [Acropora cerealis]
Description
Acropora cerealis is known for its branching growth that can form neat, reef-building thickets. Divers frequently encounter it as a visually detailed coral that adds height and complexity to the reefscape. Because it’s part of the acropora group, it often supports a lively community of small reef organisms that use the branches for shelter.
