Rapunzel Coscinaraea

Coscinaraea sp. This new release is an unmistakable oddball and a true conversation piece for LPS lovers.

Featuring smaller, tightly formed polyps paired with exceptionally long, flowing tentacles, this coral delivers movement and texture that immediately draws the eye. Its blue and green coloration comes alive under actinic lighting, producing an intense glow that makes it stand out even in well stocked reef systems.

Unlike more common large polyp LPS, this coral offers a more refined maze-like polyp structure while still providing dramatic extension and motion. The tentacles create a soft, flowing appearance as they sway in the current, making it especially striking in moderate, indirect flow.

This is not a typical, easily labeled coral, and that’s part of its appeal. It’s a unique addition for reef keepers who enjoy unusual morphology and rare finds, and it’s sure to spark discussion and curiosity in any display.

Lighting: Moderate to high, fluorescence peaks under actinics
Flow: Moderate, indirect to encourage full tentacle extension
Placement: Low to mid-level, with space for tentacle extension

An uncommon LPS with bold movement, strong fluorescence, and serious personality, perfect for reefers looking to add something truly different to their collection.
