Captive breeding / propagation

The offspring of Anacropora forbesi are possible. Unfortunately, the number of offspring is not large enough to cover the demand of the trade. If you are interested in Anacropora forbesi, please ask your dealer for offspring. If you already own Anacropora forbesi, try breeding yourself. This will help to improve the availability of offspring in the trade and to conserve natural stocks.

Husbandry know-how of owners

am 31.10.10#1
Ich halte diese Koralle seit 6 Monaten in meinem AQ, ehemals 60l, jetzt 200l. Wächst unter starker LED Beleuchtung (braucht viel Licht) sehr sehr schnell, bildet richtig große Wachstumsspitzen und färbt sich unter Blaulicht dezent grün. Eine tolle Koralle - wenn die WW stimmen! Nitrat: 5-10, Phosphat: 0,01-0,1, KH: 8.
