Candy Apples Reds Acan

<p>You also have to look out for other factors and must stay within the range:</p> <ul> <li>Calcium: 400 - 450 ppm</li> <li>Alkalinity: 3.2 - 4.8 MEQ/L</li> <li>Phosphates: 0</li> <li>Magnesium: 1200 - 1350</li> <li>Strontium: 8 - 10</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Temperature: </span>76° - 83° F (24° - 28° C)</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Salinity / Specific Gravity:</span> 1.023 - 1.025</li> </ul>

<p><span class="subListHeading1">In the wild, Candy Apples Reds Acan has developed a symbiotic feeding relationship with marine algae called zooxanthellae. But in captivity, you have to feed them with nanoplankton or dissolved organics.</span></p>

<div class="determining_sex"> <div class="determining_sex"> <p>A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating Candy Apples Reds Acan. Thriving them with fish is recommended as fish excretes nitrogen that can sustain the coral's growth.</p> </div> </div>

<p>Candy Apples Reds Acan does not need a high flow rate and intense light. Giving them moderate lighting allows the Candy Apples Reds Acan to spread their polyps thereby allowing them to feed. Too much light will cause the polyps to be retracted.</p>

<div class="caution"> <p>Except for their kind, Candy Apples Reds Acan is aggressive towards other species. During the night, they extend their tentacles and sting nearby corals. It is recommended to observe proper spacing between corals. Further, they have the tendency to be overpowered with soft corals and will die especially if soft corals outnumber them.</p> </div>

<div class="acclimation_process"> <p>Candy Apples Reds Acan are purely marine. So, therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 s<span class="subListHeading1">pecific gravity.</span></p> </div>
