Green Brain Coral
WELLSOPHYLLIA AKA Trachyphyllia geoffroyi, also known as Crater Coral or Round Brian Coral, are more often found on sandy reef slopes, around continental islands, and lagoons. There should be plenty of space between it and other corals, as it is sensitive to stings from its neighbors.Trachyphyllia Brain Corals fluoresce brightly under actinic lighting. They do best in a well established reef aquarium that incorporates moderate to strong lighting with a moderate water current, along with the addition of calcium, strontium, and other trace elements to the water. You can find this coral in colors like green,red,tan and metallic green.
- Scientific name: Tatchyphyllia geoffroyi

About Wellsophyllia Green Brain
Wellsophyllia is a folded open brain coral with thick green tissue and fused valleys, giving it a fuller shape than a standard Trachyphyllia. It rests on the sand and expands considerably during the day. Keep it clear of rock and of fish that nip at fleshy corals.
