Other factors
The use of water with the correct physico-chemical properties is critical to produce high-quality corals. Parameters
such as salinity, temperature, pH and oxygen are key to
maintain healthy corals, whereas other chemical elements,
such as calcium and magnesium, are also important. While
optimal water chemistry values are usually species specific,
please consider the review by Borneman (2008) for favourable ranges for each parameter. The water source for the
culture system is also critical, as it will affect physico-chemical parameters. Natural sea water and synthetic sea water
are the two most popular sources of water inex situaquaculture. Natural sea water usually has a balanced amount of
inorganic nutrients that is sometimes difficult to achieve
using synthetic sea water, particularly as regards micronutrients and trace elements (personal observation). Contrastingly, synthetic sea water may be advantageous for
controlling diseased and pathogens often present in natural
environments (Sheridanet al.2013).
