Elegance Coral

<p><span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Elegance Coral has a close resemblance to sea anemones since they have relatively long tentacles. Regardless if night or day, their tentacles are always exposed and out showing their elegant color, especially with the right lghting rquirement. T</span></span>his are the water parameters for cultivating <span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegance Coral</span></span>:</p> <ul> <li>Calcium: 420 - 430 ppm</li> <li>Alkalinity: 2.86 - 4.29 MEQ/L (8 <strong>- </strong>12 dKH)</li> <li>Phosphates: 0</li> <li>Magnesium: 1280 - 1350</li> <li>Strontium: 8 -10 mg/L</li> <li>Temperature: 72° - 78° F (22° <strong>- </strong>26° C)</li> <li>Salinity / Specific Gravity: 1.023 - 1.025</li> <li>pH: 8.1 - 8.4<span class="quick_stat_value"><br /></span></li> </ul>

<p>While the <span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegance Coral</span> gets it primary nourishment from a symbiotic zooxanthellae living within its tissues, they require supplemental feeding like the addition of mysis or brine shrimp. We also recommend the addition of dissolved nutrients.</span></p>

<div class="quick_stat_entry">A mature tank is highly recommened in cultivating E<span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">legance Coral. They should be set on the bottom part of the tank. In setting them, make sure to place their skeletal foundation to a soft rubble to prevent flesh irritation.</span></span></div>

<div class="quick_stat_entry"><span class="quick_stat_label"> The <span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegance Coral</span></span> requires moderate l<a>ighting</a> and low to medium waterflow.</span></div>

<p>The <span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegance Coral</span></span> can be found in the waters of Western Central Atlantic and in the Indo-Pacific Ocean. They are now considered as a vulnerable species and has been listed under Appendix II of the CITES list, which means that their international trade is monitored.</p>

<div class="quick_stat_entry"><span class="quick_stat_label"> The <span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegance Coral has an aggressive behaviour. So, you have to give them ample space between corals. This is on top of the fact that their long tentacles can sting and invade nearby polyps.</span></span></span></div>

<p><span class="quick_stat_label"><span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegance Coral</span></span></span> are purely marine species. Therefore, salinity must be entirely maintained from 1.023 to 1.025 specific gravity.</p>

<div class="quick_stat_entry">The long tentacles of the <span class="quick_stat_label"><span class="quick_stat_value"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegance Coral are considered sweeper tentacles. This means that it will try to reach nearby coral polyps while invading their colony. You also have to remember that their stinging tentacles can also irritate a human flesh. So, wearing gloves in handling them is highly recommended.</span></span></span></div>
