Levicoral

Levicorals are a type of coral unique to the 'Terra Lost' Universe's Earth. They are one of the three primary types of flying/floating "plants" currently known to exist. Levicoral are 'Floating' rocks (actually a form of coral). The sizes can vary drastically from mere pebbles to 'small' mountains. The coral polyps have a form of Telekinesis, allowing them to 'push off' the ground and thus float, much like Hexapyro species do (which is also how Levitree and the Levimimics work. Hot Air Balloon Plants work in a very different manner). This form of telekinesis (maneuvering one's self in relation to matter, esp 'pushing off' the planet or another super-large object) is generally referred to as Antigrav.
Like with other corals, only the outer 'layer' is alive and it is the living part that generates antigrav, however the 'dead' coral provides both structure and food for the living layer, and the larger the coral, the more lift it creates. Levicoral can be used like a 'blimp' for an aircraft, and there are many plants and animals that tend to grow on/live on them. Dirt and decayed matter can gather and be collected in hollows or nooks and crannies, and most of the corals tend to have dips and even slightly hollowed interiors that act as water reservoirs.
There are a few different species/types of levicoral

Tube Corals

Often large, and usually rapidly-growing. These corals form long tubes/tunnels and have polyps growing on both the outside and inside of the tube. They're thinner and more delicate than 'stone' type corals, but have much stronger antigrav, and can capture moisture in the long and usually windy tunnel it forms. They often can attach to one or more levicorals, creating bridges or tunnels to allow a means of passage between levicorals that doesn't involve flying, gliding, floating, or jumping. The tubes tend to be very large, with some specimens measuring well-over 900 feet in length. Tehre are many instances of Sky-Travelers

• Bridge: The body of the tube is very thick, resulting in a very narrow interior that can sometimes even close off entirely.
• Tube: the body of the tube is thin, resulting in a wide/gaping interior. sometimes the body is thin enough that openings can form along the length of the tube.
• Cluster: tubes that have bound together along their length... there can be between dozens to millions of the tubes present. Very similar to Syringopora coral.
• Panpipes: similar to the cluster, but the tubes are much larger, they tend to attach in a single, flat, layer; and there is usually no more than a dozen of them
• Marlicc's Maw: A unique mutation of the Tube, where there are spiky, inwards facing 'teeth' lining the full length of the tube, with the teeth and tube walls growing thicker as you progress 'in' until the tunnel dead-ends. The opening has been compared to a Rhizangiidae coral

Stone Corals

• Malachite: Tend to be smaller, rarely getting larger than 3 feet in diameter, with the largest known example being about 6 feet in diameter. They are a simple types of coral. The polyps are a bright, iridescent cyan to green color while their body is rocky and rough.
• Pinecone: Tend to be smaller, rarely getting larger than 3 feet in diameter, with the largest known example being about 6 feet in diameter. It is a small, spherical purple pine-cone(or artichoke)-shaped coral that emits a mild bioluminescent glow.
• Fools Gold: Tend to be smaller, rarely getting larger than 6 feet in diameter, with the largest known example being about 12 feet in diameter. They are a simple types of coral. The polyps are a bright, iridescent gold color while their body is rocky and rough.
• Giant's Tooth: tend to be vaguely cone shaped, with ridges running down the length of it, and the wide top having the ridge converging to the middle. It looks, as per it's name, like a (super) giant tooth. (Similar to Turbinoliidae, Caryophylliidae, and Schizocyathidae corals)
• Bone Tree / Bone Bush: Looks like trees (or bushes) bare of all leaves. Can be in several vibrant colors, with reds, blue and golds being the most common. Very similar to the Acroporidae, Astrocoeniidae, and Oculinidae corals.
• Stone Pillow / Sky-Mazed Potato: Tend to have (overall) round, mounded shapes, trending towards 'potato' shapes.... which means usually oval or sphere, but you can get some weird and wacky shapes out of it. They have a very wide range of colors; Black, Green, drab green, blue, drab blue, purple, drab purple, yellow, orange, and red. They can become massive in size, able to get 2 miles wide or more in diameter.
  Brain Maze is the most common type of Pillow, which is very similar to 'normal' brain-coral in that it has a tightly folded/mazed surface.
  There are also Honeycomb Maze, which looks much like the Anomastraea corals. They are overall similar to Brain Maze, but have a wider array of shapes/tend to be lumpy rather than rounded on average.
  Barnacle Pillows (also known as stone rose/stone flower pillows) have protrusions with raised lips and concave centers sticking out of them all over the surface. Usually these protrusions are rounded, but there are also versions that are more abstract in shape, and some that fold in on themselves, having little to no concave zone, only the raised lips. Resemble Horastrea, Mussidae, Merulinidae, Montastraea, and Plesiastrea corals.
  Dancing Ridge levicorals are closely related to the Honeycomb Maze, but the ridges are significantly taller and thicker, having little (to no) gap between them (Resembling Lobophylliidae, Pocilloporidae, and Poritidae corals).
  Razor Ridge levicorals have tall, thin ridges running out radially from the center of the levicoral. They're usually round, but can be 'lumpy' or even noodley in shape (Resembles Fungiidae and Micrabaciidae)
