General info about Fruit Loops Monti
In general, corals coming from the genus Montipora takes several coral lifeform like submassive, laminar, foliaceous, encrusting and branching. Their appearance and coloration is usually mottled in nature. They have corallites that are considered one of the smallest as far as the family of corals is concerned. Their walls usually has an elaborate structure and has a porous texture.
As for the Fruit Loops Monti, they are predominantly colored blue with red polyps.This are the water parameters in cultivating Fruit Loops Monti:
- Calcium: 400 - 450 ppm
- Alkalinity: 3.2 - 4.5 MEQ/L
- Phosphates: 0
- Magnesium: 1350 - 1500
- Strontium: 10
- Temperature: 72° - 78° F (22° - 26° C)
- Salinity / Specific Gravity: 1.024 - 1.025
Fruit Loops Monti Diet & Nutrition
The Fruit Loops Monti get its primary nutrition from a symbiotic algae called zooxanthelae that is living within their tissues. But despite this symbiotic relationship with an algae, we still recommend you do supplemental feeding by adding mysis and brine shrimp in the water.
Fragging / Propagating Fruit Loops Monti
A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating Fruit Loops Monti. They should be set on the middle or bottom part of the tank.
Flow / Lighting Requirements for Fruit Loops Monti
The Fruit Loops Monti requires moderate lighting and moderate waterflow.
Fruit Loops Monti Origin
The Fruit Loops Monti can be found in the waters of the Indo Pacific Ocean. They are considered as a vulnerable species listed under Appendix II of the CITES list.
How to Acclimate Fruit Loops Monti
The Fruit Loops Monti are purely marine, therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 specific gravity.
