Blue Rimmed Green Capricornis

<p>In general, corals coming from the genus Montipora takes several coral lifeform like submassive, laminar, foliaceous, encrusting and branching. Their appearance and coloration is usually mottled in nature.  They have corallites that are considered one of the smallest as far as the family of corals is concerned. Their walls usually has an elaborate structure and has a porous texture.</p> <p>As for the <strong>Blue rimmed green capricornis</strong>, they are predominantly colored brown with blue polyps and a blue coloration on the rim or margin. This are the water parameters in cultivating <strong>Blue rimmed green capricornis</strong>:</p> <ul> <li>Calcium: 400 - 450 ppm</li> <li>Alkalinity: 3.2 - 4.5 MEQ/L</li> <li>Phosphates: 0</li> <li>Magnesium: 1350 - 1500</li> <li>Strontium: 10</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Temperature: </span>72° - 78° F (22° - 26° C)</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Salinity / Specific Gravity:</span> 1.024 - 1.025</li> </ul> <p> </p>

<p>The <strong>Blue rimmed green capricornis</strong> get its primary nutrition from a symbiotic algae called zooxanthelae that is living within their tissues. But despite this symbiotic relationship with an algae, we still recommend you do supplemental feeding by adding mysis and brine shrimp in the water.     </p>

<p>A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating <strong>Blue rimmed green capricornis</strong>. They should be set on the middle or bottom part of the tank.</p>

<p>The <strong>Blue rimmed green capricornis</strong> requires moderate lighting and moderate waterflow.</p>

<p>The <strong>Blue rimmed green capricornis</strong> can be found in the waters of the Indo Pacific Ocean. They are considered as a vulnerable species listed under Appendix II of the CITES list.</p>

<p>The <strong>Blue rimmed green capricornis</strong> are purely marine, therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 s<span class="subListHeading1">pecific gravity.</span></p>
