Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea

<div class="quick_stat_entry">In general, species from Caulastrea have branches that sprungs out from a central base, where each branch ends in a large head. Overall, their structure resembles like a trumpet. When it comes to polyps, they have large fleshy polyps that can expand greater than its skeletal colony.</div> <div class="quick_stat_entry"> </div> <div class="quick_stat_entry">As for the Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea, they are predominantly colored green including the polyps.This are the water parameters for cultivating Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea: <ul> <li>Calcium: 400 - 450 ppm</li> <li>Alkalinity: 2.86 - 4.29 MEQ/L (8 - 12 dKH)</li> <li>Phosphates: 0</li> <li>Magnesium: 1200 - 1350</li> <li>Strontium: 8 -10</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Temperature: </span>72° - 78° F (22° <strong>- </strong>26° C)</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Salinity / Specific Gravity:</span> 1.023 - 1.025</li> <li>pH: 8.1 - 8.4</li> </ul> </div>

<p>On top of the fact that Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea gets its prmary nourishment from the symbiotic zooxanthellae living within their tissues, the addition of supplemental foods is recommended like mysis and brine shrimp.</p>

<p><span class="quick_stat_label"> A mature tank is highly recommended in cultivating Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea. They should be first set in the bottom part of the tank, and later on, can be transferred to the middle part.</span></p>

<div class="quick_stat_entry"><span class="quick_stat_label"> The Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea requires low to moderate lighting and moderate waterflow.</span></div>

<p>The Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea can be found in the waters of the Indo-Pacific Ocean.</p>

<div class="quick_stat_entry">The Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea is highly sensitive to light. This is the reason why you should set them at the bottom part of the tank. Then after acclimation, it is the only time that you can transfer them on the mid tank portion.</div>

<p>Since the Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea are marine species, salinity must be entirely maintained at 1.023 to 1.025 s<span class="subListHeading1">pecific gravity</span>. Make sure that you will not expose them to bright light (specially with metal hallides) as they are highly senstive to this.</p>

<p>The Nuclear Trumpet Caulastrea have sweeper tnetacles that stings nearby corals. With this, you have to give them ample space to nearby corals.</p>
