Darth Maul Porites – Dark Side Color, Savage Contrast

The Darth Maul Porites is a coral straight from the dark side—a jet-black to deep maroon base pierced by blazing orange-red polyps that glow like embers under actinic light. It’s one of the most visually intense Porites morphs in the hobby, offering brutal color contrast and sleek encrusting form in one rare, unforgettable piece.

This coral encrusts rock and frag plugs with a fine, tight surface texture, forming a smooth, high-definition mat of color. Under high PAR and clean, stable conditions, it displays excellent fluorescence and becomes an absolute standout against lighter corals and rockwork.
