Coralaxy is a coral farm in Germany. The job of coral farms like Coralaxy is to cultivate corals for people to fill their aquariums with, while protecting natural reefs from collection in the process. And while farming might make it sound like they’re growing plants, corals are actually animal colonies made up of marine invertebrates that form spectacular structures painted with vibrant colors. Part of the "Journey to the Microcosmos" series.
