Description
Nightcrawler Palythoas have a massive polyp that has red streaking across its entirety.
Additional information:
Care: Beginner - Flow: Low, medium - Lighting: Low
Water Parameters:
Calcium: 440 ppm is the ideal level, according to Bulk Reef Supply. Calcium is essential for coral growth and skeletal development.
Alkalinity: 9 dKH (degrees of carbonate hardness) is the target, according to Bulk Reef Supply. Alkalinity helps maintain stable pH levels and is crucial for coral health.
Magnesium: 1350 ppm is the recommended level, according to Bulk Reef Supply. Magnesium plays a role in calcium and alkalinity balance.
pH: Aim for a pH as close to 8.3 as possible, according to Bulk Reef Supply. Maintaining a stable pH is vital for coral growth and overall tank health.
Temperature: Reef tanks typically thrive in temperatures between 75- and 80-degrees Fahrenheit.
Salinity: A specific gravity of 1.025 or 35 PPT is generally recommended.
Specific Gravity: Should be kept between 1.023 and 1.025.
Nitrate (NO3): Levels should be kept low, ideally around 5 ppm or less.
Phosphate (PO4): Should be kept as low as possible, generally below 0.03 ppm, according to Recif'Art.
