A Word of the Coral
TIA Signature Fairy Garden Tenuis has one of those color combinations that immediately feels magical. Soft pinks, bright greens, and hints of blue blend together across the branches, giving the coral a dreamy look that inspired its name.
When the polyps are fully extended, the colony almost looks like a tiny garden where something magical could live. It’s hard to describe exactly, but the colors together create a truly enchanting presence in the reef.
