Pink Lemonade

Acropora. Expert to keep, Typical PAR 200–350, high flow.

Also sold as Tyree Pink Lemonade.

Collector tier: uncommon, reviewed 2026-08.

An Acropora whose thin branches run lemon yellow to lime green under long pink polyps. With the polyps out the colony reads fuzzy and pink, and that is the lemonade: yellow stick, pink fuzz.

How to tell it is the real thing

The pink is in the polyps, not the skeleton. With them retracted a frag reads as a plain yellow-green stick, so judge it with the polyps out and under white light as well as blue, where the yellow body fluoresces hardest. The name began as Lime Green Acro and was sold for a while as Shades of Fall. Tyree is on many shops' labels, but no source this entry could read settles who named it, so treat the prefix as a label rather than a lineage.

Keeping Acropora

High light and strong random flow, up in the rockwork. Pink Lemonade is expert to keep at a typical PAR of 200–350 in high flow. A typical starting range for this type of coral rather than a measured requirement for this morph. Spectrum, how it was acclimated and the system it grew in all move it.

What Pink Lemonade goes for

No verified sales yet. A range publishes once 3 dated, checkable records from 3 different sources exist, priced per frag and reported as a median, with what shops ask kept separate from what buyers paid. One frag is a single cut on a plug, whatever its exact size. Colonies, mini colonies and mother stock are excluded rather than averaged in. Nothing on this page is for sale.
