Ricordea Aquaculture
By Blane Perun
Ricordea Aquaculture Rate: (24 Ratings)
Dedicated systems are recommended for mushroom aquaculture or specifically Ricordea mushroom coral aquaculture. Closed tank systems should be use for each specific type of mushroom coral. In my Ricordea aqua farm facility I do not even mix Ricordea mushroom coral with Rhodactis. This is what I recommend to others, too, interested in ricordea aquaculture because this is where the most success will be over the long haul.

Water Quality and Ricordea Aquaculture
It might not be bad to mix mushroom coral
species. However, since I have the 
space I separate them. If
you don’t then you may not have any other option with your ricordea
aquaculture other than mixing mushroom coral species. If you
can avoid it, however, do so. Water quality in Ricordea aquaculture
is also a concern. The highest water quality possible is very
important and the water circulation should be excellent. High
turnover, splash trays, and open tanks are important in ricordea
aquaculture and should always be used.
Water Change and Ricordea Aquaculture
Water change is important in Ricordea aquaculture
because it will help reduce 
drastic PH shifts and promote optimum
gas exchange. Tanks without skimmers should receive frequent
water changes to keep the water as clean and pure as possible.
Close maintenance is required for consistent feeding in any mushroom
coral Ricordea aquaculture facility.
Isolation of Ricordea Aquaculture
The after care is most important in Ricordea aquaculture. Every propagated mushroom coral should be isolated. Beta tanks made of plastic that hang are useful and are the perfect size for the propagated mushroom coral and enough substrate.
Healthy Fragments in Ricordea Aquaculture
I keep the live coral’s exposed surface clean
with a small pipette for the first 
couple weeks. Keeping the
excess slime off the coral helps prevent the risk of a bacterial
infection. Fresh cuts could become infection without excellent
water circulation and too much slime.
Simple Ricordea Aquaculture
If you follow the simple steps discussed here you will be successful with Ricordea aquaculture and propagation. Additionally, you will have a lot of fun. Look at my hot pink Ricordea Yuma live coral and you will see how rewarding Ricordea aquaculture can be. You may not be successful your first time, but you might be. Just take your time, be patient and follow the directions I have outlined for you. If you do, then your odds of being successful with Ricordea aquaculture will be much better.
