Experiment Tank Conditions during a thermal stress experiment using reef building corals collected in Kāne'ohe Bay, O'ahu, Hawai'i.

Abstract:

Experimental tank conditions through the four day acclimation period and five week thermal stress experiment. Temperature in each tank was logged every 10 minutes as well as discrete measurements of temperature, pH, salinity, and conductivity made twice daily. Flow rates of each tank were measured once a day, and light (PAR) was measured once daily in the morning.

Methods & Sampling

Cultivation of coral nubbins:From the waters of Kāne‘ohe Bay, HI, four colonies of each coral species M. capitata and P. acuta were identified and collected under SAP 2019-60. Each of the four colonies for each species was fragmented into 30 pieces at the Hawaiʻi Institute of Marine Biology, located on Moku o Loʻe in Kāne‘ohe Bay, HI, and hot-glued to labeled plugs. The 30 glued nubbins of each genotype were then randomly distributed among six tanks (~32 liters; 48.3 cm by 38.1 cm by 17.8 cm; L × W × H), leaving five replicates per genotype in each tank for a total of 40 coral nubbins per tank and 120 coral nubbins per species. Tanks were placed in a flow-through system that had a steady supply of water directly from Kāne‘ohe Bay with an average flow rate of (173.8 ± 73 liters hour−1, mean ± SD). Each tank was fitted with a submersible pump (Hydor 200 gph), a HOBO Water Temp Pro temperature logger (operation range, −40° to 70°C; resolution, 0.02°C at 25°; accuracy, ±0.21°C from 0° to 50°C; Onset Computer Corp.), an Apex temperature probe (Neptune Systems), and two heaters (Aqueon 300-W Heater set to 31°C and DaToo 300-W Glass Heater set to 34°C). The temperature in the tanks was controlled by powering off and on the heaters based on set points in the Apex aquarium controller (Neptune Systems). Light was set for a 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle using Arctic T247 lights (Ocean Revive).
