Here you will find Top 5 Mistakes When Buying Live Corals (And How to Avoid Them).<\/p>\n<p>Corals are found exclusively in the sea, especially in the tropical belt. There is a difference between soft and hard corals. The skeletons are formed by calcium deposits, as a result of which the coral reefs have arisen. Corals are placed in different categories in which they are divided into sub-categories. The main categories are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.signaturereefcorals.com\/en\/product-category\/lps-koralen\/\">LPS<\/a>\u00a0stands for long polyp stony,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.signaturereefcorals.com\/en\/product-category\/sps-koralen\/\">\u00a0SPS<\/a> stands for short polyp stony and soft corals.<\/p>\n<p>In the coral itself, symbiotic algae live in the polyp cells, which are called\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Zooxanthelle\">zooxanthellae<\/a>. These provide the intensive colors in the living tissue of the coral. These unicellular algae are seamlessly integrated into the coral&#039;s nutrient balance with their photosynthetic metabolism. Depending on the plankton present, the size of the coral polyps can vary greatly. That is why a distinction is made between large polyps (LPS \u2013 Large Polyp Stony) and small polyps (Small Polyp Stony). Polyps range in size from fractions of a millimeter to several centimeters. Corals have been around for over 400 million years.
