Resembling a &#8220;meat coral&#8221; or &#8220;button coral,&#8221; it features a single, large, fleshy polyp that can expand significantly, often appearing much larger than its stony base. Its unique appearance, with its balloon-like lobes and sometimes contrasting mouth color, makes it a captivating centerpiece in any reef aquarium. This hardy coral is generally peaceful and well-suited for mixed-reef setups when given adequate space.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Care Level<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Beginner to Moderate. The Red&amp;White Shimmer Cynarina is a relatively hardy coral, but it requires stable water parameters and protection from aggressive corals. Its sensitivity to chemical warfare necessitates ample space from other tank inhabitants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tank Essentials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A minimum tank size of approximately 190 litres (50 gallons) is recommended. This coral thrives in stable conditions with low to moderate lighting (PAR 100-220) and gentle, indirect water flow. Avoid strong currents that can damage its delicate tissue or cause it to detach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While photosynthetic, the Red&amp;White Shimmer Cynarina benefits greatly from supplemental feedings of meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, krill, or specialized LPS coral foods, offered 1-2 times per week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Buy From Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At Corais de Vidro, we are dedicated to providing healthy, vibrant marine life.
