This Tidal Gardens coral spotlight is all about Cynarina and Indophyllia. I am lumping these two genera of corals together because they look similar and it is very common for them to be mistaken for one another. Both Cynarina and Indophyllia have an interesting translucence to their flesh giving them a unique appearance. I think they make great centerpiece corals in a low light LPS dominated reef. They are especially attractive in tanks that use predominantly blue light as their color gets washed out to a large degree in daylight colored lighting.
