Acropora cervicornis, the staghorn of staghorn corals, is a protected Caribbean species that is truly in peril. This branching Acropora has been grown and propagated in captivity by only a select few individuals with the proper research permits. Dave Lackland is one of these individuals, which is why we were thrilled when he shared this video–a 330 day time lapse of Acropora cervicornis growing in an aquarium. Keep an eye out on those Ricordea as well!
