Trachyphyllia corals add distinctive colour patterns and folded, fleshy tissue to a reef aquarium. Before buying a Trachyphyllia, compare more than the colour: check the listed dimensions, shape and space needed when the coral expands. With our WYSIWYG listings, you receive the exact coral photographed. Names such as “Rainbow” describe the specimen’s appearance; its colours can look different under your lighting. The size and care information on each product page are therefore important parts of your choice.
Prepare a suitable position
Plan a secure spot in the lower reef or on the sand, keeping sharp edges away from soft tissue. Indirect flow should help prevent debris from settling without constantly pressing the polyp against its skeleton. Acclimate the coral gradually to your lighting and maintain stable water chemistry. Our care guide for fleshy LPS covers placement and acclimation. Explore our other LPS corals and check the shipping and delivery information before ordering.
