The Ultra Trachyphyllia is one of the most visually striking LPS corals available in the reef hobby today. Known for its intense, multi-layered coloration — think electric reds, vivid greens, bold purples, and neon pinks often swirling in the same colony — \"Ultra\" grade specimens are hand-selected for exceptional color saturation that sets them apart from standard Trachys. These are not common finds, and when you buy Trachyphyllia online at this tier, you're investing in something genuinely rare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTrachyphyllia are fleshy, free-spawning brain corals that expand dramatically under proper flow and lighting, often more than doubling their skeletal footprint as their tissue puffs out during feeding and peak extension. They are deeply rewarding for intermediate to advanced reef keepers — patient, expressive, and visually dynamic throughout the day. Place them on a sandy substrate with low to moderate flow and watch them become the centerpiece of your saltwater aquarium that every visitor immediately notices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQUICK STATS \u0026amp; CARE GUIDE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Open Brain Coral \/ Trachyphyllia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ultra Grade — size varies per specimen; listed individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive — possesses sweeper tentacles; keep space between neighboring corals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Photosynthetic (Zooxanthellae); benefits from supplemental target feeding of meaty foods (mysis, chopped marine proteins) 2–3x weekly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — with caution; maintain adequate spacing from adjacent corals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Temp 76–80°F | Salinity 1.025–1.026 | pH 8.1–8.3 | Alkalinity 8–10 dKH | Calcium 400–450 ppm | Magnesium 1280–1350 ppm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHY BUY FROM THE CORAL BOUTIQUE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Ultra Trachy that leaves The Coral Boutique is ethically sourced, fully quarantined, and conditioned in our Miami facility until it is actively extending and responding well before we ever consider shipping.
