Dendrochirus brachypterus ("Brack-hip-tur-us")
(Cuvier 1829), The Shortfin Dwarf or Fuzzy Lion is a rarer, more heavy
bodied dwarf, often showing up with a good deal of yellow, brown and
green mixed with red markings. Brach dwarfs are aptly named in reference
to their very large pectoral fins with almost no emerging ray tips. This
is one of the most personable marine species, quickly getting to
recognize and respond to it's owners presence. N. Sulawesi 09. |

Genus Turbinaria Oken : Form large colonies with mainly laminar growth forms, common with several species. Round corallites which are immersed to tubular in appearance. A commonly offered and kept aquarium genus, whose members prove hardy amongst a wide range of conditions. Being hermatypic and sponsors of symbiotic algae, they do best in medium to bright (25k-50k lux) light and brisk water movement. The thinner, more laminar species and individuals (growth dependent on conditions...) are harder to keep than the more fusiform members of the genus. |
