A Word of the Coral
Frosted Grape is a cool delight — crisp, tangy, and lit from within. Its stubby branches shimmer with layers of violet, icy lavender, and cobalt blue, crowned by brilliant yellow corallite mouths that glow like candy drops. The contrast is striking yet playful, giving the colony an energizing pop of flavor and light. This is a coral that turns any tank into a sweet and frosty reef treat.
