CoraroC is a unique 3D-printed aquascaping system for reef tanks. It allows you to mount and move corals to almost any position in your reef, making it easy to re-scape and reuse.
Single corals can be quickly removed for fragging or inspection— all done with a simple twist. If a coral isn’t thriving in one spot, you can easily relocate it to a better position.
CoraroC can be used on its own or combined with live or dry rock. It’s suitable for new tanks as well as running tanks, allowing you to expand your scape and create more space for corals.

After years of building, maintaining, and redesigning reef tanks, we’ve gained first hand insight into the challenges of every phase of the hobby. Often, a planned five-minute coral trim would turn into a weekend-long re-scaping project because a larger piece of the scape broke. Many times, we endured months with a scape we weren’t fully satisfied with, simply because we knew how much work it would take to change it.
Around 2011, we began experimenting with special coral holders (pegs) to simplify coral placement. This evolved into using PVC pipes in scapes as a foundation for positioning corals, laying the groundwork for the modular, flexible system that would eventually become CoraroC.

Replacing a single coral in a tank can be challenging, especially when it has encrusted over rocks with other corals.
Tearing down fully grown tanks is often a messy process. Corals grow together and over rocks, and while you may save a few healthy pieces, the rest often ends up as a frag mess or misshaped fragments.
With CoraroC, you can disassemble your tank in a controlled way, making it easy to relocate, trim, or replace corals without disrupting the rest of your aquascape.

The “PVC scape” allowed us to remove corals for fragging or relocate them if they weren’t thriving. However, it was time-consuming to build, corals didn’t always stay in place, and making changes required a lot of effort.
With the advent of 3D printing, we began developing a modular aquascaping system in 2018, which ultimately led to the creation of CoraroC— a flexible, reusable, and easy-to-use solution for modern reef tanks.

With CoraroC, fragging and trimming corals is simple. Identify the branches you want to cut, remove the coral, trim it, and place it back in the tank — all without disturbing the rest of your aquascape.
