The Coral Shell Plate is a common species of coral. It is divided into 3 types: Coral, Slanted and Veined. The first is the only harvestable one, and can yield from 1 to 4 Coral Tube Samples when hit a few times. The other two cannot be harvested, with the Slanted Shell Plate turning gray or dying if hit too many times with a knife or punched with a Prawn Suit.

Appearance

The Coral Shell Plates have a faint olive color and a crescent-like shape, similar to those found on Giant Coral Tubes.

The Slanted Shell Plate is a group of slanted plate corals arranged close to each other, with a variety of sizes. It is mainly dark green in color, with the bottom part having a wide arrange of colors.

Veined Shell Plates are oval shaped corals, which have bioluminescent yellowish and brown branching patterns on their surface. They have a slightly rough surface with some pits between the branches.

Data Bank Entry

This variant of coral has adapted to survive in close proximity to other corals, filtering nutrients from the water and sharing them via a spore-like substance which grows around the base. Assessment: No practical applications discovered

Trivia

• Despite all three of them having different characteristics and behavior, when scanned, they all have the same data bank entry.
• Even though the data bank entry states they have no practical applications, one of the variants does have one.
