Maze Brain Coral

Maze Brain Coral, scientifically known as Platygyra daedalea, is a captivating large-polyp stony (LPS) coral known for its intricate, maze-like patterns of valleys and ridges on its surface. This coral thrives in water temperatures between 72°F and 78°F, with a pH range of 8.1 to 8.4. It prefers low to moderate water flow and moderate lighting conditions, which help to mimic its natural habitat found in sheltered reef environments. Maze Brain Coral is appreciated for its robustness and the unique aesthetic it brings to the aquarium, making it a popular choice among reef enthusiasts. While generally hardy, it requires stable water quality and careful placement within the tank to avoid aggression from or towards other corals. Its slow growth rate and need for space to expand make it suitable for aquarists who can provide a stable, long-term environment.
