General info about Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis
In general, mushroom corals coming from the genus Rhodactis are classified as a false coral without a skeleton, although their internal structures are the same with stony corals. Their stalk is very small that is located just above the pedal disc which is the area where they attach themselves to the substrate.
As for the Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis, they are predominantly colored black woth yellow tentacles. This are the water parameters for cultivating Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis:
- Calcium: 400 - 450 ppm
- Alkalinity: 2.86 - 4.29 MEQ/L (8 - 12 dKH)
- Phosphates: 0
- Magnesium: 1200 - 1350
- Strontium: 8 - 10
- Temperature: 72° - 78° F (22° - 26° C)
- Salinity / Specific Gravity: 1.023 - 1.025
- pH: 8.1 - 8.4
Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis Diet & Nutrition
In the wild, Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis has developed a symbiotic feeding relationship with marine algae called zooxanthellae that is living within their tissues. But in captivity, you have to feed them with nanoplankton and you may add dissolved organics in the water.
Fragging / Propagating Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis
A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis. They must be set at the botoom of the tank to simulate their natural wild environment.
Flow / Lighting Requirements for Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis
The Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis requires moderate lighting and moderate waterflow.
Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis Origin
The Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis can be found in the waters of the Indo-Pacific Ocean.
Caution Should be Taken with Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis
The Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis has a semi-aggressive behaviour. Proper spacing must be observed in relation to other coral species in the tank.
How to Acclimate Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis
The Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis is a marine species. Therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 specific gravity.
Stinging Tentacles on Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis
The Interstellar Mushrooms Rhodactis has long sweeper tentacles that can sting nearby corals.
