Captive breeding / propagation

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

Husbandry

Ernährt sich aus einer Kombi von Licht und planktonischem Futter.
Scheibe und Tentakeln sind in der Farbe gleich. Lebt meist in Gruppen von mehreren Individuen.
Leicht zu halten, benötigen viel Licht und eine mittlere bis geringe Strömung.
Können sich zweiteilen, sie vermehren sich aber auch durch Knopsung.
