We generally show the coral frags under different
light settings:
- Top view blue light - 20,000 K
- Top view daylight - 12,000 K
- Reef tank shot without filter
- Reef tank shot with orange filter (= filter shot)
- Variation of frags
- optional: picture of the broodstock
When taking a filter shot, we deliberately choose not to use too much blue light in order to display the colors as naturally as possible and as one would perceive them without filter glasses. Please note that deviations can still occur due to certain display and lighting settings and subjective perception.
In terms of size, you can use the light grid plate to help you: one square is 1.6 x 1.6 cm. Our frag plugs measure 2 or 3 cm in diameter.
Tubastrea belong to the azooxanthellate corals
Tubastrea corals are very demanding in terms of care due to their diet. They do not have symbiotic algae in their tissues (= azooxanthellate) with which they could feed on light. Instead, Tubastrea require regular feeding in the form of frozen or dust food.
Tubastrea - how often to feed?
We recommend that you feed your Tubastrea daily during the dark phase. Naturally, they only show their pretty polyps, which they use to take in food, at night. To feed the corals as precisely as possible, use a pipette or feeding bell and turn off the flow pumps during feeding. Some aquarists have been able to get their Tubastrea to change their habits over time by feeding them regularly so that the polyps even open during the day. Adding amino acids before feeding can trigger polyp expansion.
