Green Grinch Cynarina Coral – A Vivid Centrepiece for Reef Aquariums
Enhance your reef aquarium’s aesthetic with the Green Grinch Cynarina Coral. Renowned for its intense green pigmentation and dome-shaped structure, this LPS coral serves as a striking focal point in any reef setup.
Lighting Requirements:
The Green Grinch Cynarina prefers moderate lighting conditions, ideally within a PAR range of 100–150. It’s advisable to start with lower light levels and gradually acclimate the coral to brighter settings to prevent stress or bleaching.
Water Flow:
Optimal health is achieved under low to moderate water flow. Excessive flow can hinder the coral’s ability to feed and may cause tissue damage.
Aquarium Compatibility:
This coral is well-suited for nano to large reef aquariums. Due to its semi-aggressive nature, ensure ample space between it and neighbouring corals to avoid potential stinging from its sweeper tentacles.
Feeding:
While the Green Grinch Cynarina derives nutrients through photosynthesis via its symbiotic zooxanthellae, it benefits from supplemental feeding. Offer meaty foods like brine shrimp or specialised coral foods to promote growth and vibrancy.
Placement:
Position the coral on the lower sections of your aquarium, preferably on a sandy substrate or stable rock base, to mimic its natural habitat and ensure optimal health.
