Purple Asterospicularia

<p><span class="quick_stat_value">The Purple Asterospicularia is one of the few species of soft corals that do not grow big. They are predominantly colored either blue or violet.</span></p> <p>This are the water parameters for cultivating Purple Asterospicularia:</p> <ul> <li>Calcium: 420 - 440 ppm</li> <li>Alkalinity: 2.86 - 4.259 MEQ/L (8 <strong>- </strong>12 dKH)</li> <li>Phosphates: > 0.10 mg/L</li> <li>Magnesium: 1260 - 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</li> </ul>

<p>While the <span class="quick_stat_value">Purple Asterospicularia gets it primary nourishment from a symbiotic zooxanthellae living within its tissues, the require supplemental feeding like mysis or brine shrimp.</span></p>

<p><span class="quick_stat_label"> The <span class="quick_stat_value">Purple Asterospicularia</span> should be set either at the bottom or at the middle part of the tank.</span><span class="quick_stat_value"><br /></span></p>

<div class="quick_stat_entry"><span class="quick_stat_label"> The <span class="quick_stat_value">Purple Asterospicularia</span> only requires m</span><span class="quick_stat_value">oderate lighting and moderate waterflow.</span></div>

<p>The <span class="quick_stat_label"><span class="quick_stat_value">Purple Asterospicularia</span></span> can be found in the waters of the Indo-Pacific Ocean.</p>

<div class="quick_stat_entry"><span class="quick_stat_label"> Although the <span class="quick_stat_value">Purple Asterospicularia</span> has a peaceful t<a>emperament</a>, you still need to provide them with ample space to other coral specimens in the tank. Spacing is very important since the grow rapidly once it has established and completely acclimatized itself in the tank.</span></div>

<p><span class="quick_stat_label"><span class="quick_stat_value">Purple Asterospicularia</span></span> are purely marine species. Therefore, salinity must be entirely maintained from 1.023 to 1.025 specific gravity.</p>
