📜 Backstory

A named Coral Collection line, sold as 'CC Supernova' by Coral Collection and resold by Harry's Marine Life and Aquarium Reefers with 'Coral Collection 10+ year lineage' noted. Traded and discussed on Reef2Reef (the 'Supernova vs Inferno' thread notes the Supernova reads cooler/magenta where the Inferno is warmer). Circulated as captive splits of the Coral Collection mother colony.
