我们很高兴欢迎Leo Den Breejen作为我们国际贡献者阵容的最新成员。狮子座是著名的aquascapes的创造者Formosa Forestand阿波贡礁and he’ll be dropping from time to time to share his reefing experiences.
Acropora Suharsonoi在印度 - 太平洋中部和印度尼西亚中部的下礁坡和淹没的墙壁上发现,从15到25米。属Acropora是最丰富的石质珊瑚属之一。该物种的数量值得商bat,该属中有350多种,但非外来生长和菌落形状很像Acropora Suharsonoi。
Acropora Suharsonoi有一个受限制的范围和并不常见。一个殖民地re thickets or corymbose clumps with branches consisting primarily of extremely long tapered axial corallites. Incipient axial corallites forming branchlets occur at the base of the main axial corallites. Color varies from grey to beige or green. In nature,Acropora Suharsonoi特别容易受到漂白,疾病,thorns海星捕食的影响。Acropora Suharsonoioccurs in an area likely to be heavily impacted by anthropogenic disturbance, therefore suffering from extensive reduction of coral reef habitat. It has a generally low reproductive capacity and therefore would be slow to recover.
The care for deepwater species such asAcropora Suharsonoi与其他Acropora相比,与其他殖民地的状况和饲养相比,与其他Acropora的困难或不同。考虑他们的特定需求很重要;中等光,中等流动和光线,重点是光谱的蓝色端。选择一个殖民Acropora Suharsonoi, i通常最好与定期从巴厘岛进来的水产养殖个人一起去。甚至这些菌落也只能添加到更成熟的系统中。
Always select colonies ofAcropora Suharsonoithat exhibit good polyp extension, and avoid those with any bleaching or tissue peeling, mainly caused by light shock (placed in high intensity light to quickly). On coral reefs, red and green light penetrates less deep than blue and violet. That is the reasonAcropora Suharsonoi,在15-25米处繁衍生息,以中等强度和蓝色照明效果增色和增长。我经历的是,在T5照明下,它们的表现非常出色,主要是蓝色和光化的T5荧光灯。
In my own reef tank, populated mostly with deepwaterAcropora,我有五个小时的光周期,使用十个T5,六个蓝色灯泡,两个粉红色和两种阳光。这些条件使我在珊瑚组织中的最佳生长和颜色发展。以我的经验,深水Acros的水参数应与其他AcroporaSpecies: calcium 400 to 450 ppm, alkalinity 2.4 to 3.5 meq/L, magnesium 1200 to 1350 ppm, phosphates;0.03 and a water temperature of 76 to 82 degrees Fahrenheit. I found that they are much less sensitive for AEFW infection then for instanceAcropora NanaandAcropora Millepora,但是您必须记住,它们对基于碘的害虫的降低非常敏感。如果您怀疑感染,最好使用另一种类型的珊瑚害虫浸。
在上面描述的最佳条件下,我发现Acropora Suharsonoi是最美丽的杂星之一,具有有趣的生长结构,美丽的色彩和令人惊讶的快速增长。
