Metallic Wellso (Metallic Folded Brain)

A variant of Wellsophyllia (Wells Brain) (Trachyphyllia geoffroyi)

Metallic Wellso (Metallic Folded Brain)

Representative Wellsophyllia (Wells Brain)photo — a dedicated image of this exact morph isn't available yet.

A folded, fused-wall Wellso in metallic green and red tones with an irregular round outline, deep valleys and the convoluted 'folded brain' walls that distinguish the heavily-folded radiata-type pieces.

📜 Backstory

'Wellso Folded Brain Coral, Metallic' is a long-standing catalog item at LiveAquaria, describing the more convoluted, fused-wall morphology that earned the old 'Wellsophyllia' name (now folded under Trachyphyllia geoffroyi). A widely available, affordable wild grade — not a single propagated line.

Keeper tips for this variant

Sandbed placement under low-to-moderate light and gentle flow; the folded walls trap detritus, so a soft turkey-baster blow during feeding keeps it clean. Keep alkalinity stable.
