Common name: Pachyseris

Pachyseris is a genus of stony corals often found in reef aquariums. These corals are known for their distinctive leafy or plating growth forms, which can add a unique texture and structure to a reef tank. They come in various colors, typically shades of green, brown, and sometimes with hints of pink or yellow. Pachyseris corals are relatively hardy and can be easier to care for than some other SPS (Small Polyp Stony) corals, making them suitable for intermediate hobbyists. They thrive in moderate to high lighting and water flow conditions, and like other SPS corals, they benefit from stable water parameters and the addition of calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium to the water.
