What are clove polyps?
Clove polyps are beautiful invertebrate cliffs and are a popular accessory to sea aquariums. They are very easy to take care of them, only require weekly feeding and spreading quickly across the nearby rocks. This form of marine life tends to overtake neighboring corals and anemones, so they should be kept far away. Other common names for clove polyp are polyps gloves, polyps inclined and eight tentacle polyps. They are very popular in aquariums of commercial and domestic cliffs due to their live colors and patterns and easy care. Polyps describe long tubular bodies of plants. At the end of the polyps there are eight tentacles that swing beautifully in the stream. The tentacles grow up to 4 inches (10.16 cm) when they are open and reduced back to half their size when they are closed. They come in different colors, including green, purple and pink.
These invertebrates will spread very quickly to allclose rocks and create what looks like a mat of lump masses. Clove polyps are considered semi -aggressive compared to other invertebrates due to their reproductive habits. They should be kept away from the other corals in the aquarium because they tend to grow directly on top of another coral. They can also be harmful to certain anemone, such as zoanthid anemones, so they should not be placed in each other. In addition, they are vulnerable to other aggressive invertebrates and fish, so they should be relatively isolated.
The ideal environment for seabed polyps should be maintained so close to the natural cliff environment is possible. The temperature should remain between 72 (22.22 ° C) and 78 (25.55 ° C) Fahrenheite degrees and a specific weight should be between 1.023 and 1.025. The pH of the aquarium should remain between 8.10 and 8.40. This animal requires strong water flow and lighting that mimics the cliff so that metal halogenide light is recommended.
when placed in mediumOr high levels of the sea aquarium are able to prosper best. Feeding these sea creatures is quite simple because most of their nutrients are obtained by photosynthesis. Weekly feeding small plankton and adding trace elements and iodine to water should provide enough nutrients.
