Scoly actually. They call the pattern Warpaint if that matters.

I was wondering if scoly and trachy could be next to each other like that touching?

No problem here. Late in the white cycle, they both lay out flatter and often go back and forth with one skirt over the other, and vice versa how carpets will do

I have had my trachy for 8 months about.
When I got it, was roughly over 1 1/2" skeleton.


It has gotten rather large over the months. Also acts rather weird.
Daytime it's flat like a pancake.

Lights off

As the lights kick on.

After looking at the base of the skeleton yesterday. It did this at feeding time. A bit blurry, I didn't clean the glass in that area :*(


Who else has some awesome photos of their trachy and growth feeding phases?

So NICE!!!

Such an under rated coral. Was hoping for more pics. I guess acros and torches stay as the poster boys :*(

I keep looking out for a red donut. They are not common at all.

I usually see the ones with folds and multiple mouths. I don't see pancakes that often and they grow big with a single mouth.

to be honest, when I first bought it, it wasn't as flat or as round. it just started growing this way

I'll have to figure out how to determine between the 2. There are multiple growth patterns of trachyphyllia. Why they all got thrown into trachyphyllia geoffroyi, is beyond me.

These were both sold to me as Wellso's (which apparently is now Trachy?) One has the traditional shape and one has the flat pancake shape.
