- **Medium Sea Green** #3cb371 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Medium Sea Green sits directly opposite #fb3caf on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.

- **Tomato** #ff6347 [harmony, pool: analogous] — Tomato is #fb3caf's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.

- **Light Sea Green** #20b2aa [harmony: split] — Light Sea Green is a split-complement of #fb3caf: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/lightseagreen
