Trachyphyllia Assorted Brain Corals – Premium Aquacultured LPS | Vibrant Open Brain Coral | Sustainably Grown by coralSLover®

Bring refined beauty and color depth to your reef aquarium with Trachyphyllia Assorted Brain Corals, sustainably cultivated in controlled, land-based systems at coralSLover® aquaculture farms. Each specimen is meticulously hand-selected for premium coloration, growth form, and overall health — ensuring you receive a truly stunning coral that exemplifies the best in captive propagation.

Trachyphyllia geoffroyi, commonly known as the Open Brain Coral, is a large polyp stony (LPS) species prized for its vibrant colors, fleshy polyps, and undulating patterns. These corals display a broad spectrum of hues, from metallic lime green and radiant crimson red to ultra-rare rainbow morphs combining pink, orange, gold, and emerald tones. When fully expanded, the polyp surface develops a velvety texture with deep lobes and valleys, reflecting light beautifully under both daylight and actinic reef lighting.

In the aquarium, Trachyphyllia corals are free-living and prefer to rest on sandy substrate or smooth, stable rockwork where their tissue can fully expand without abrasion. Gentle, indirect flow helps maintain natural movement and prevents debris accumulation, while low to moderate lighting brings out their richest pigment tones. With stable parameters and occasional feeding, these LPS corals exhibit steady growth and long-term resilience — an excellent combination of showpiece beauty and adaptability.

At coralSLover®, every Trachyphyllia coral is 100% aquacultured in the USA using closed recirculating systems. This not only supports ocean conservation but ensures corals arrive healthy, acclimated, and free from wild collection stress. Our aquaculture approach allows us to provide vibrant, stable, and ethically sourced specimens that thrive in modern reef aquariums.

Care & Placement Trachyphyllia coral:

  • Lighting: Low to moderate (PAR 80–150). Too much light may cause tissue recession or bleaching.

  • Flow: Low to gentle, indirect flow to encourage natural expansion and prevent sand irritation.

  • Placement: Ideal for sandbeds or low rock shelves with space to expand. Avoid contact with aggressive neighbors.

  • Feeding: Benefits from supplemental feeding 2–3 times per week with meaty marine foods such as mysis shrimp, reef roids, or finely chopped clam.

  • Water Parameters: Keep alkalinity 8–9 dKH, calcium 420–450 ppm, and magnesium 1300–1400 ppm for optimal skeletal development.

Great For: Advanced hobbyists, collectors, and reef keepers looking for a true centerpiece LPS coral that combines luxury coloration with sustainable aquaculture origins.

Sustainability: 100% aquacultured and raised in the USA at coralSLover®.

Lighting: Moderate to moderately high lighting brings out vibrant coloration and supports steady growth. Many LPS prefer indirect or slightly shaded areas to avoid tissue stress.

Flow: Moderate, indirect water movement is ideal. Gentle but consistent flow keeps polyps clean and extended without damaging their fleshy tissue.

Placement: Mid to lower rockwork or sandbed is often best. Allow ample space between colonies, as many LPS have long sweeper tentacles and can sting neighbors.

Water Quality: Stable parameters are key — maintain balanced alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium levels with low to moderate nutrients. Sudden changes can stress fleshy polyps.

Feeding: LPS benefit from targeted or occasional broadcast feeding of meaty or particulate foods to support faster growth and vibrant coloration.

Difficulty: Beginner to intermediate friendly — many LPS are hardy but appreciate consistent conditions and occasional feeding for best results.

Sustainability: Fully aquacultured, zero wild collection — responsibly grown and well adapted to aquarium life.

Disclaimer:
Corals on the pictures are not WYSIWYG, photos was made under different lighting (blue or white lights) and in different tank (our show of frag tanks). You will get coral size as described, shape and color could be slightly off due to shipping stress.
After shipping stress soft corals (Mushrooms, Cloves, all types of  Leathers) always will  look shrink and colorless, won't look as on photos. For them to recover and adjust to new environments they will need 3-7 days in low lights and flow. Specially for mushroom we recommend to keep they under 100PAR and less.
