Overview
The Cynarina Pink Mouth with Red Border and Blue Strikes is a true mega colour coral—bursting with contrast and iridescence. Its fleshy, translucent tissue surrounds a delicate pink central mouth, framed by a glowing red rim that features scattered electric-blue streaks like lightning through a tropical sunset.
Highly sought-after by collectors, this Cynarina is a living jewel that brings softness, color, and movement to your reefscape. Each specimen is unique in pattern, but all share that signature depth and vibrancy characteristic of high-grade Cynarinas.
Care & Feeding
This species prefers calm conditions and stable parameters. Though photosynthetic, it thrives with target feeding of meaty foods such as mysis, brine shrimp, or marine pellets. Feeding at night or when tentacles are slightly extended improves both size and coloration over time.
Optimal Parameters
Alkalinity (dKH): 8-11
Calcium (Ca): 420-460 ppm
Magnesium (Mg): 1300-1400 ppm
Nitrate (NO3): 2-10 ppm
Phosphate (PO4): 0.01-0.05 ppm
Placement
Place this coral on the sand bed or a low rock ledge where it can safely expand without physical irritation. Avoid direct flow and ensure it’s not overshadowed, allowing the full coloration to glow under balanced spectrum lighting.
