Pink Constellations Palys

<div class="more_detail"> <div class="more_detail"> <div class="more_detail"> <div class="more_detail">In general, corals coming from the genus Palythoa are classified as zoanthids with colonies that are embedded hard in the substrate and is often covered by its protruding polyps. Each polyp has an oral disc or mouth that is flat in shape and surrounded by a fringe of tentacles.</div> <div class="more_detail"> </div> <div class="more_detail">For the Pink Constellations Palys, they are predominantly colored pink with violet tentacles and violet mouth. This are the water paramaters in cultivating Pink Constellations Palys:</div> <div class="more_detail"> <ul> <li>Calcium: 380 - 430 ppm</li> <li>Alkalinity: 3.2 - 4.5 MEQ/L</li> <li>Phosphates: 0</li> <li>Magnesium: 1250 - 1300 ppm</li> <li>Strontium: 8 - 10</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Temperature: </span>72° - 82° F (22° - 27° C)</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Salinity / Specific Gravity:</span> 1.023 - 1.025</li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div>

<p><span class="subListHeading1">In the wild, Pink Constellations Palys 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 Pink Constellations Palys. They should be set in the middle or top part of the tank where they will receive the most amount of light.</p>

<p>Pink Constellations Palys requires strong lighting and moderate waterflow.</p>

<p>While the Pink Constellations Palys are easy to maintain, you have to be alert for filamentous algae that can overgrow and smother their polyps. They are also prone to box snail which feeds on them, so you need to remove this particular snail from the tank. You also have to look out for large crustaceans and fish like angelfish and butterflyfish that nibbles on their tentacles.</p>

<p>Pink Constellations Palys are abundant and can be found in the waters of the Indo-Pacific Ocean.</p>

<p>Pink Constellations Palys are known to posses high levels of palytoxin and vibrio bacteria especially in their mucus. So, you need to wear gloves in handling them.</p>

<p>Pink Constellations Palys are purely marine. So, therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 s<span class="subListHeading1">pecific gravity.</span></p>

<p>Since the Pink Constellations Palys contains toxins and bateria, you have give them ample space so that they cannot sting other coral species.</p>
