Resembling the intricate folds of a brain, these corals come in a dazzling array of colors including greens, reds, purples, blues, and multi-colored patterns. They are free-living and naturally rest on sandy substrates, making them ideal for sandbed placement in a well-established reef aquarium. Their unique appearance and moderate care requirements make them a popular choice for hobbyists seeking a captivating centerpiece coral.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Care Level<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Moderate. Trachyphyllia are generally hardy and forgiving once stable conditions are met. They require consistent water parameters and careful placement to prevent tissue damage or stress. They are best suited for intermediate aquarists but can be successful for beginners with proper research and dedication.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tank Essentials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A minimum tank size of 75 litres (20 US gallons) is recommended, though larger, more stable aquariums are preferred. Maintain stable reef water parameters: Temperature 75\u201380\u00b0F (24\u201327\u00b0C), Salinity 1.024\u20131.026, pH 8.1\u20138.4, Alkalinity 8\u201312 dKH, Calcium 400\u2013450 ppm, and Magnesium 1250\u20131350 ppm. They prefer low to moderate, indirect water flow and low to moderate lighting (50-150 PAR).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Trachyphyllia corals are photosynthetic but benefit greatly from supplemental feeding. Offer meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, or specialized LPS coral foods 1-3 times per week. Target feeding, especially in the evening, encourages vibrant coloration and robust tissue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Buy From Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We source only the healthiest Trachyphyllia, ensuring vibrant colors and robust health.
