Husbandry

Die ersten 3 Bilder zeigen das Wachstum eines Ablegers von Millepora exaesa.

Millepora exaesa überwächst krustenförmig das Gestein und andere Korallen.

Mehr Infos über Feuerkorallen finden Sie in der Rubrik und unter den Milleporas.

Ihren Namen verdankt die Art den Nesselzellen, die in der Lage sind, die menschliche Haut zu schädigen und dann ein sehr schmerzhaftes Gift zu injizieren.

Die Verletzungen sind infektiös und können sogar Narben hinterlassen.

Hauptsächlich findet man sie an Riffhängen, meist im Indopazifik, aber auch ein paar Arten in der Karibik.
