Aussie Super Orange Lobo

<div class="more_detail"> <p>In general, corals coming from the genus Lobophyllia are called Brain Corals. They have fleshy polyps that can be retracted deep within its calcareous skeleton. It features a variety of textures and colors wheer some are smooth, pimply while some resembles like a carpet.</p> <p>As for the Aussie Super Orange Lobo, they are predominantly colored orange with violet mouth. This are the water parameters in cultivating Aussie Super Orange Lobo:  </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, Aussie Super Orange Lobo 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 Aussie Super Orange Lobo. Thriving them with fish is recommended as fish excretes nitrogen that can sustain the coral's growth.</p>

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

<p>Aussie Super Orange Lobo can be found throughout the Indo-Pacific region. They are widely distributed from East Africa (the Red Sea to Polynesia), Japan, Marshall Islands, and the Great Barrier Reef and Solitary Islands of Australia.</p>

<p>Except for their own kind, Aussie Super Orange Lobo 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>

<p>Aussie Super Orange Lobo is purely marine. So, therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 s<span class="subListHeading1">pecific gravity.</span></p>
