Overview

'Pink Lemonade' is an aquacultured Acropora lineage named for pink branch tips over a yellow to yellow-green body. Growth is moderate, and frags from later aquacultured generations settle in easily, making it a popular entry into multicolor Acropora. Keep it under strong light and strong flow with stable KH, Ca and Mg; stronger light tightens the pink, while weaker light shifts the yellow toward green. As a trade name, we treat it here as a lineage.

How to identify

Strawberry Shortcake has a pink body with blue axial polyps, whereas Pink Lemonade has a yellow body with pink confined to the tips. Pikachu Tenuis is solid yellow with no pink tips.
