Battlecorals BPG (Blue Polyped Granulosa)

Battlecorals BPG (Blue Polyped Granulosa)

Battlecorals BPG is sold as an Acropora granulosa, pairing a crisp, pale body with contrasting blue polyps. Use the Reef Culture Co. mother-colony photographs as the authority for its exact coloration in our system.

Lineage and story

BPG is an established Battlecorals lineage. Adam at Battlecorals described it in 2019 as a tricky Acropora he had already maintained for eight or nine years and through multiple generations. That gives it real aquaculture history, even if its original collection story is not publicly documented. Read the Battlecorals discussion.

Battlecorals identifies BPG as Acropora granulosa and describes its defining appearance as blue polyps against a crisp white body. View the Battlecorals listing.

What to expect
