Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki Acan

<div class="more_detail"> <p>Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki Acan is small encrusting corals that have corallites with an irregular angular shape. The central corallite is conspicuous with compact septa and small columellae. This is one of the few species of Acanthastrea that is not fleshy. Its general color range from pale gray or brown and is often mottled.</p> <p>This is the ideal range of water parameters for raising Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki Acan in captivity:</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> </div>

<p><span class="subListHeading1">In the wild, Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki 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>

<p>A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki Acan. Thriving them with fish is recommended as fish excretes nitrogen that can sustain the coral's growth.</p>

<div class="breeding"> <p>Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki Acan does not need a high flow rate and intense light. Giving them moderate lighting allows the Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki Acan to spread their polyps thereby allowing them to feed. Too much light will cause the polyps to be retracted.</p> </div>

<div class="origination"> <div class="origination"> <p>Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki Acan has a wide range of habitats and can be found in both tropical and subtropical areas. They are widely distributed in the Indo-West Pacific region ranging from Indonesia to Melanesia and Japan to Australia.</p> </div> </div>

<div class="caution"> <p>Except for their kind, Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki 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"> <div class="acclimation_process"> <div class="acclimation_process"> <p>Ktar Rainbow Bowerbanki Acan is purely marine. So, therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 s<span class="subListHeading1">pecific gravity.</span></p> </div> </div> </div>
