Momo Coral originates from the tropical waters north of Taiwan and Japan. Identification features include whitish round spots or veins called “soul”. This may perhaps initially may seem a flaw, but is in fact a valuable feature, as it helps determine the authenticity and origin of the coral. Mono coral colours vary from medium light red to salmon/orange to reddish pink.
