Our quarantine procedures
Our quarantine procedures
We take livestock seriously. That's why we don't sell anything we wouldn't be comfortable putting in our own tank.
As we are direct from source, we import and sell direct to the public. This means you can buy with confidence knowing EMA prides itself on excellent handling and conditioning protocols.
All our fish held in a quarantine system for a minimum of 3 weeks. During this time, regular water changes are performed, and twice daily (or sometimes more) feedings are performed.
Copper is dosed and checked twice a day for ich and velvet.
During this treatment fish are given formalin baths for brooklynella and a minimum of 3 praziquantel doses is performed for flukes.
Description
Description
The Purple Symphyllia has purple-toned tissue and a folded, valleyed surface. It brings a broad, textured form to a lower reef position with gentle surrounding flow.
Placement and care
- Lighting: Low to moderate reef lighting, adjusted gradually.
- Flow: Gentle to moderate indirect flow.
- Placement: Use a stable lower position with room for expanded tissue. Leave a generous gap from other corals, including at night.
Keep salinity and temperature stable and monitor alkalinity, calcium and magnesium as the coral grows.
Feeding and maintenance
Offer small marine foods to extended feeding tentacles. Keep the fleshy tissue free from abrasion and avoid placing the colony where sand continually covers it.
What you will receive
Approximate listed size: 6 cm.
Representative photograph: you will receive a comparable coral of the listed type, rather than the exact piece pictured.
Colour varies with aquarium lighting and screen settings. Size is a guide, and polyp expansion changes through the day.
