i just bought some stage 4 (10" stem with two leaves) mangroves from hawaii and are slowly acclimating into the saltwater. how fast did you acclimate yours? where did you place them in your tank?
i acclimated the mangroves the same way but took about 4 weeks. placed them inside my main tank with the stems half way. problem is they were doing good for a month and then it got hotter inside my closed canopy due to the warmer weather were having and the 2 250watt 10,000k halides. 2 out of the 10 now are brown at the top. since then got a chiller from roscoe on reef frontiers and been steadily getting a tank temp of 79 degrees.
are they considered dead or are they still alive? also, do you put your mangroves all the way down into the water with the leaves sticking out in the air; or half way? i've bought a magnesium test kit and have been keeping the level around 1290ppm. what magnesium level do you keep yours? i spray freshwater on the leaves everynight to flush the saltwater but i noticed a little yellowing on some of the mangrove leaves. 1 mangrove grew 2 leaves since. how fast do leaves reproduce? took about 2 months for 1 mangrove to produce leaves. thanks for your experience in advance..
do you do any special requirements for your mangroves?
