A bright neon-green encrusting/branching staghorn-type acro, famously fast-growing and forgiving. The classic 'starter SPS' for new reefers.
Keeper tips for this variant
Use this as your acro test piece before buying expensive colonies — give high flow and PAR 200-300, and if the Slimer thrives for a few months your tank is ready for pricier acros.
