The Cynarina lacrymalis — commonly known as the Doughnut or Button Coral — is one of the most visually striking large-polyp stony corals available in the hobby. This ultra bright orange variant is particularly rare in its intensity of coloration, commanding immediate attention in any reef tank with its vivid, electric hue and deeply textured, fleshy tissue. It's the kind of specimen that becomes the crown jewel of a saltwater aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCynarina are solitary, single-polyp corals that grow slowly and deliberately, eventually reaching 4–6 inches across at full maturity. Unlike more aggressive LPS corals, they have a calm, self-contained presence — expanding dramatically when happy and well-fed, puffing up into a glassy, jewel-like dome that showcases every fold of color. Feeding response is one of the most rewarding experiences in the reef aquarium hobby; target-feed meaty offerings like mysis or chopped seafood and watch this coral come alive in real time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQUICK STATS \u0026amp; CARE GUIDE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Doughnut Coral, Button Coral, Meat Coral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 3–4 inches (polyp diameter, fully extended)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy to Moderate — an excellent choice for hobbyists at any experience level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive — maintain at least 6 inches of space from neighboring corals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Photosynthetic and carnivorous; benefits greatly from weekly target feeding with mysis shrimp, krill, or meaty marine foods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, with caution — provide adequate spacing due to sweeper tentacle reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Temp 76–80°F | Salinity 1.025–1.026 | pH 8.1–8.3 | dKH 8–11 | Calcium 400–450 ppm | Magnesium 1250–1350 ppm; prefers low flow and moderate lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHY BUY FROM THE CORAL BOUTIQUE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Cynarina we ship from The Coral Boutique has been ethically sourced, carefully quarantined, and fully conditioned in our Miami facility — actively feeding and displaying full polyp extension before it ever gets near a shipping box.
