Fire Coral

Millepora alcicornis

Family: Milleporidae

📍 Caribbean and tropical Atlantic reefs

Ask Finn

A hydrozoan rather than a true coral — branching, blade-like, or encrusting forms in mustard-yellow. Delivers a potent sting, even to humans. Fast-growing and found on shallow, high-flow reef crests.
