The Turtle Shell Trachyphyllia is a striking showpiece LPS coral, combining rich emerald green tones with heavy red marbling and layered skeletal ridges that resemble the patterning of a turtle shell. The thick inflated lobes and bold central folds create depth, texture and movement under both blue and white reef lighting.
This WYSIWYG Trachyphyllia coral is ideal for hobbyists looking to add a high impact centrepiece coral to their reef tank. Its fleshy structure and strong colour contrast make it perfect for lower rockwork placement or on the sand bed where it can fully expand and display its natural structure.
Trachyphyllia corals are known for their hardy nature compared to many other large polyp stony corals, making them suitable for aquarists with stable systems who want premium colour without extreme care demands. When provided with stable parameters, moderate lighting and gentle flow, this coral will inflate beautifully and continue to develop deeper coloration over time.
This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the exact coral shown is the one you will receive. Individually photographed under reef lighting to show true colour and detail.
