Red bubble coral?

[jwoyshnar]

Has anyone ever heard of a red bubble coral? I was at my lfs last night and they had one. Of course I bought it but I have never heard of one before.

Here is a pic of it. Let me know what you think or if I have the species wrong.

No it's actually Cynarina lacrymalis. Very nice coral.

Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it.

What type of light and flow do you have? I would suggest moving it to the sand, that is where I have mine placed.

Led lights and it gets hardly any flow there. It seems quite happy there. That is the location the lfs had it in and he ran LEDs too

Is that a BTA to the right of the coral? My cynarina will inflate and deflate a surprising amount in a 24 hour period, you might want to make sure that your coral isn't going to inflate enough to touch the BTA, or inflate itself off the rock.
