Coral Acropora Millepora has similar species with Acropora Spathulata and A. Convexa. A. Spathulata forms corymbose clumps with thicker branchlets.
Close-up of Staghorn Coral Acropora sp. Typical for Acropora species: Always a polyp on top of every branch. Staghorn corals are among the fastest growing corals on reefs, and are excellent reef-builders. Staghorn corals often out-compete all other corals in shallow tropical reefs, however, their speed of growth (which can be up to 10 to 20 centimetres a year is balanced by the fragility of some of the structures, as they are easily damaged in storms allowing other coral species a chance of growth. Even if well hidden, the Coral Shrimp Vir philippinensis can be identified. Ngerchong Island, Palau, Micronesia, 7°6'57.48\

This image shows the effects of Coral bleaching and disease. This stunning Staghorn coral (Acropora) is beginning to show the signs of coral bleaching.  The tips are turning white.  This could be as a result of pollution, disease or global warming.  The location is Phi Phi Islands, Andaman Sea, Krabi, Thailand in 2018.
Coral bleaching occurs when corals expel their symbiotic algae, known as zooxanthellae, due to stress caused by factors such as high water temperatures, pollution, or ocean acidification. This leads to the corals losing their vibrant colors and becoming pale or white. Without the zooxanthellae, the corals are more vulnerable to disease and may ultimately die. Coral bleaching is a major concern for coral reefs around the world, as it can have a devastating impact on the entire marine ecosystem that relies on these important structures.

Fungi sporulation is the process by which fungi produce and release spores, enabling them to reproduce, survive in adverse conditions, and disperse to new environments through asexual (conidia, sporangiospores) and sexual (ascospores, basidiospores) methods, triggered by environmental cues and involving complex developmental stages including initiation, maturation, and release, playing crucial roles in ecological balance, agriculture, biotechnology, and the food industry.

Brain coral is a common name given to various corals in the families Mussidae and Merulinidae, so called due to their generally spheroid shape and grooved surface which resembles a brain
This Acropora table coral was seriously damaged, but the colony is regrowing over the damaged table. The white edges are the growing zones. \nObviously this colony has a high recovery potential and over all the resilience of the reef is exceptional: \nWhen the Banda volcano last blew its top in 1988, a large lava flow swept down the northern slope into the ocean, covering a large part of reef in volcanic rock. What many thought would be the total destruction of the reef has instead become one of the most incredible coral reefs in Indonesia. Measured from ground zero after the eruption in 1988, this particular reef is known to be the fastest growing coral in the world. \nLava Flow, Banda Neira Island, Indonesia, \n4°30'20.418 S 129°52'57.456 E at 9m depth
