True pink

[tripdad]

What is the best "true" pink sps coral? Not red, I have a few of those, but genuinely pink. I used to see some back in the Zeovit days but is there anything out there nowadays?

I feel like a lot of stuff appears pink under low nutrients. From what I’ve seen in my tank:
- tropic thunder monti
- red planet / Tierra del Fuego (same thing? Idk)
Even forest fire monti is a little pink with low nutrients.

Pink Birdsnest or Stylophora by a mile. You need the right spectrum of lighting to bring out the pink though.

Not my picture, I didn't have one of my colony in the camera roll, for some reason.

Thank you all for the info!

Honestly, true pink SPS corals are pretty hard to find, especially ones that keep a nice pink colour rather than turning red or orange. I’d look into some of the older Zeovit pieces, but I’d also pay close attention to lighting and nutrients, since those can make a big difference in how the colours develop. Sometimes a coral that looks amazing in someone else’s tank can turn out completely different in yours. If you find a really nice pink one, I’d definitely ask for pictures under normal lighting and see how long it has held that colour. Would love to see what you end up finding!

DFS Pink Panther as mentioned above for solid pink. POTO Dragon blood is pretty nice too, I have a little one growing out (not my photo)

That would be a gorgeous one to have in a tank!

I would say Hot Pink Stylophora, it keeps that nice pink color under white lights and blue lights.
