Ultra Trachyphyllia Coral
The Trachyphyllia coral, also known as the Open Brain Coral or Trachy, is a stunning addition to any reef aquarium. This large polyp stony (LPS) coral is renowned for its vibrant, eye-catching colors, which can range from vivid reds and greens to deep blues and purples. Its fleshy, inflated appearance and intricate patterns make it a favorite among aquarists.
Originating from the Indo-Pacific region, Trachyphyllia corals thrive in a variety of light conditions, from moderate to low light. They prefer gentle water flow, which helps to bring nutrients to their polyps without causing damage to their delicate structure. These corals are photosynthetic but also benefit from occasional feedings of meaty foods like brine shrimp or coral-specific foods.
Trachyphyllia corals are relatively hardy and can adapt well to different tank environments, making them suitable for both beginners and experienced reef keepers. Their striking beauty and ease of care make them a standout choice for any coral enthusiast looking to add a touch of vibrant elegance to their underwater world.
