Captive breeding / propagation

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

Ich habe ein erstes Exemplar dieser Koralle gleich nach der Einfahrphase eingesetzt. Es ging ihr prima, bis ich beim selben Händler ein weiteres Exemplar erwarb und ebenfalls einsetzte. Nach wenigen Wochen zeigten beide Veränderungen: Die Polypen wurden nicht mehr ganz ausgefahren, die Mundscheibe stark geschwollen, die Koralle schleimte ab und ging nicht mehr ganz auf. Ich konnte nicht herausfinden, woran es lag, bis ich diesen Artikel gelesen habe, der oben ebenfalls verlinkt ist: reefkeeping.com
Hierin wird das "elegance coral syndrom" beschrieben, das nur Catalaphyllia betrifft und deren Symptome perfekt zu meinen Korallen passen. Leider ist es auch das Todesurteil für die Korallen, es scheint sich um eine sehr ansteckende Krankheit zu handeln, deren Entstehung noch unklar ist, an der aber alle infizierten Korallen zugrunde gehen werden. Der Artikel ist von 2008, anscheinend sind die Informationen aber nach wie vor zutreffend. Schade, ich mochte meine Catalaphyllia sehr.
