Its rich colors and dramatic, fleshy polyps make it an irresistible centerpiece for any marine aquarium.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Trachyphyllia geoffroyi, commonly known as the Open Brain Coral or Trachy Coral, boasts a captivating, convoluted appearance, resembling a brain when fully inflated. Available in an incredible array of fluorescent greens, reds, oranges, pinks, and multi-colored rainbows, this LPS coral inflates beautifully during the day. Each specimen is a unique, living sculpture, adding dynamic beauty and striking visual appeal to your aquatic display.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Care Level<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Considered a beginner to intermediate LPS coral, the Trachy Coral is relatively hardy once acclimated to a stable reef system. It exhibits a peaceful to semi-aggressive temperament, possessing short sweeper tentacles, so ensure ample space from neighboring corals to prevent any issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tank Essentials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A minimum of 150 litres is recommended for your Trachy Coral to thrive. It prefers placement on a soft sandbed in lower tank areas, receiving low to moderate, indirect water flow and lighting. Avoid rough rockwork or areas prone to detritus accumulation to protect its delicate tissues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While primarily photosynthetic, the Trachy Coral greatly benefits from supplemental spot feeding 2-3 times per week. Offer meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, enriched brine shrimp, or LPS-specific coral foods, especially when its feeding tentacles are extended.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Buy From Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you buy Trachy Coral online from Corais de Vidro, you&#8217;re investing in healthy, responsibly sourced LPS corals.
