In recent years, due to the decrease in parent colonies of elk horn and stag horn corals, there has been an increase in hybrid formation between the two species due to a smaller chance of fertilisation between the same species and an increase in cross fertilisation. These happen to be viable hybrids.

I was wondering if hybrid corals are produced artificially for aquariums, potentially producing new and beautiful species.
