TIA Pink Sovereign Tenuis: Crown-Like Polyps in Saturated Coral Pink
The TIA Pink Sovereign Tenuis mother colony — the coral your frag is cut from — under Actinic Radion Mobius lighting. Colors shift under different lighting; each piece is cut to order.
What is TIA Pink Sovereign Tenuis?
TIA Pink Sovereign is a collector-grade SPS Acropora tenuis with a rich coral-pink body layered with glowing green rims and soft violet tones. Each polyp forms a tight floral structure that reads like stacked petals under actinic light, and this is a saturated, high-energy pink that holds its intensity even under strong lighting.
The story
TIA Pink Sovereign Tenuis is one of those pieces that instantly stands out in the display tank. The rich coral-pink body is layered with glowing green rims and soft violet tones, giving the colony a royal, almost crown-like appearance. Each polyp forms a tight floral structure, creating the look of stacked petals under actinic lighting. This is not a pastel pink — it is a saturated, high-energy pink that keeps its intensity even under strong light. A true collector-grade Tenuis with signature TIA coloration and structure.
Care requirements
TIA Pink Sovereign is an SPS Acropora tenuis. The live team copy states lighting and flow but does not publish a full water-parameter block. | Parameter | Target | |---|---| | Lighting | Medium to high light | | Flow | Strong random flow recommended | | Growth form | Branching with dense polyp layering and a strong encrusting base |
General SPS husbandry (not colony-specific): the team has not published measured parameters for this colony. The ranges below are standard Acropora targets, not values measured on this piece — PAR 250–400 under blue-heavy reef lighting · 76–79 °F · salinity 1.025–1.026 · alkalinity 8–9 dKH · calcium 400–450 ppm · magnesium 1300–1400 ppm. Stable parameters matter more than exact numbers.
Buying a Pink Sovereign frag
Every piece is cut to order from the mother colony. After we cut your frag, we send you a video of it, and we recommend allowing about 14 days of heal time before expecting full recovery. Every order is covered by TIA's 3-day live-arrival guarantee, and TIA has grown and named collector corals since 2008.
