The Coral Tree Nursery is an innovative new technique for growing corals at sea which takes some inspiration from techniques for culturing corals that were pioneered in home aquariums. Now the whole Coral-Tree part is totally of Coral Restoration Foundation’s doing, but the practice of suspending corals from strings now as ‘Coral Candy’ was introduced to the aquarium hobby over ten years ago by reef aquarists who found themselves running out of space on their live rock and sand bed.
弦上种植珊瑚糖果的最好部分是,它不仅可以节省空间,而且比我们所知道的任何其他类型的安装技术都产生更快的珊瑚和更快的珊瑚,而且CRF也已转向。。尽管在家庭水族馆生长的珊瑚中主要是为了节省空间,但CRF发现,这种类似树状的地层生长的珊瑚往往会受到大量笨拙的鱼类(如护士鲨鱼)的干扰,这些鲨鱼往往会把珊瑚从珊瑚上撞倒,从而从他们的坐骑上敲开珊瑚。海床。

Macna 2011 attendees had the good fortune to be able to see the fruits of CRF’s labor at the Boyd Enterprises booth where several of these coral-tree-farmed staghorn coral were displayed, both in a mounted and suspended orientation. The technique of growing corals in this Coral Tree Formation owes a lot to pioneering coral farmers in the US and America and it is an awesome example of how the hobby is helping out our mother-reefs in a way that goes well beyond simply fragging and mounting corals.
We are very proud to see achievements of our hobby being employed by the珊瑚恢复基金会我们有一天希望潜入一些佛罗里达礁石,这些礁石已由CRF恢复。如果您想提供帮助,您总是可以在CRF中采用僵硬的珊瑚at a variety of sponsorship levels and if you’re really baller, you could sponsor a整个staghorn珊瑚的森林like Ecoxotic did earlier this year.
