Open Brain Coral

Transform Your Tank with a Showpiece Straight from Australia

Looking for a coral that commands attention... The Ultra Hot Aussie Trachyphyllia is one of the most visually striking LPS corals available to reef keepers today. Sourced from Australian waters, this specimen displays an explosive palette of reds, oranges, and greens that intensify under reef lighting — no two are alike. Its rarity in this color grade makes it a true collector's piece, and a guaranteed centerpiece in any serious marine aquarium.

Open Brain corals are rewarding to keep and remarkably expressive — they visibly inflate and deflate throughout the day as they feed and respond to their environment. Placed on the sandbed with moderate flow, this specimen will expand dramatically over time, developing an impressive fleshy profile that reflects excellent health. It's a genuinely interactive addition to your reef tank, and one that experienced aquarists consistently describe as one of the most satisfying corals to own.

When you buy Open Brain Coral online, you deserve confidence — and that's exactly what we deliver.

This is a WYSIWYG coral listing. The coral shown in the product photos is the exact frag or colony that ships to you — no stock photos and no substitutions.

Eligible coral orders ship Monday through Thursday via FedEx Priority Overnight. Orders placed by 2 PM EST may ship same day when weather and availability allow.

For best results, acclimate slowly and place new corals in lower light and flow before moving them to their final position. Coral response can vary depending on tank stability, lighting, flow, and water parameters.

We photograph corals with reef-specific lighting, close-up detail, and adjusted white balance so you can evaluate color, shape, and polyp extension clearly. For WYSIWYG listings, the photographed coral is the exact coral that ships.
