Seriatopora aculeata

Seriatopora aculeata is a species of colonial stony coral in the family Pocilloporidae. It forms a bushy clump. It is native to the Central Indo-Pacific and the Oceanic West Pacific. Its range includes the Philippines, the Great Barrier Reef, Fiji, Indonesia, the Coral Sea, southern Madagascar and Vanuatu. It grows in shallow reef environments, at depths down to about 40 metres (130 ft). It is an uncommon species and subject to coral diseases and bleaching. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the conservation status of this species as being "vulnerable".[1]

Description

Seriatopora aculeata is a colonial species and can grow to a diameter of about 20 cm (8 in).[1] It is a zooxanthellate species containing symbiotic dinoflagellates in its tissues.[2] It is similar in appearance to Seriatopora hystrix and Seriatopora stellata but the branches are stout and tend to be fused in small clumps. The corallites are scattered over the surface of the branches and the polyps are often expanded during the day. The colour of this species is usually pink or creamy-white.[3]

gollark: I was thinking about automation-type tools, but this sort of thing seems a decent idea too, so I might just do that.
gollark: That might make sense (restricted to the relevant folders, not losg and random stuff, at least).
gollark: What's a good way to manage all my services and stuff in a reasonably centralized fashion (yes, I know this is pretty vague)? I run many random webservices (some run in docker, they're all behind a reverse proxy (caddy)), having manually installed them, configured configuration, and in some cases set up service files for them, but I'm worried about the hassle restoring all this stuff would be in case of server failure and backing up all of `/` just seems inelegant. What I eventually want is to be able to, if my server or drives fail, redownload some scripts/configs/whatever, run some simple commands, load a backup of the relevant data and restart things.

gollark: Just buy 5 MacBooks, then, obviously.
