This Cyphastrea sp. has some of the most intense red corallites that we have ever seen in a Cyphastrea species coral. The coral was found in a southern California reef shop by snipersps. Another great find by Hugo who decided to call the coral Blood Red Eyes Cyphastrea due to the corals intense red corallites. Reeffarmers acquired our seed section of this coral from snipersps in the fall of 2005. This encrusting massive coral grows fairly well in captivity (see image below). The bright red corallites contrast sharply with the main body of the coral. This is a moderately difficult to keep sps coral. Steve Tyree is maintaining a farmed section of this coral for reeffarmers.com in one of his 125 gallon naturally filtered Tri-Zonal Reef Aquariums. In Steve's captive reef the coral is positoned to recieve moderate to weak light levels under a 400 watt 20,000 K Radium Metal Halide. Limited Edition Reservation price for fragment is currently $54 per small sized fragment. The bimonthly limited edition reservation schedules can be found below.
