It picks on rocks all over the tank, it has attacked a plate tentacle anemone (guess the meat was good?) & picked on my maidens hair so far. But I have many other corals that it has not touched at all. I don't think that I would risk it with SPS corals, but in my LPS/Softie tank he has done alright overall.

	SPS Small Polyped Scleractinians - Sometimes known as Small Polyped Stony corals. These are hard corals that have extremely small polyps. They are typically on the difficult side and require Metal Halide lighting or dense Power Compact or T5 arrays. These corals are prized for their rareness and ability to be easily fragged into multiple colonies.

	LPS Large Polyped Stony corals – In the aquarium hobby this is a common division of the species of stony corals based upon the visual assessment of the size of the polyps. Corals in this category were among the first stony corals to be kept successfully in captivity and include many very beautiful species. Commonly kept Genera include Euphyllia (hammer/frogspawn coral), Favia (brain coral), Plerogyra (bubble coral), Lobophyllia (meat/tooth coral), and Caulastrea (candycane coral). LPS corals also include the popular solitary non-colonial stony corals such as Fungia (plate coral), Cynarina (button coral), Trachyphyllia (open brain coral), and Herpolitha (tongue coral). Like their SPS counterparts, LPS corals require good water quality, intense lighting of the appropriate spectrum, adequate water movement and regular supplementation of calcium.

Still have the touch coral and the clown?
I'm interested.

[FastUno]

Yes, both are available.


Mandarin- sold
red carnation- sold
rics- sold

I have 1 more frag of orange carnation.

[spykes]

i would like a torch coral is that possible?

[jackson6745]

Fastuno how long did you have the carnation?

[FastUno]

Items no longer for sale, they have all been sold.

I had a red carnation for about 3 months & traded it due to space limitations. Then someone bought me an orange carnation & I have had it for about 5 months. I try to direct feed it phyto, liquid life marine plankton w/cyclo (great stuff you guys), & freeze dried cyclo. Put a cut bottle over it & direct feed. Leave bottle over for an hour or so.

I have heard of people keeping & HEALING up Gioniopora w/this Liquid Life Marine Plankton, so it's a feeding thing & most likely not a missing element thing.

On another note, I may have some fuzzy mushrooms & button polyps to sell/trade.

Here is the Goniopora link, same holds true for carnation.

Where are you getting that product (Liquid life) in NYC. I have been looking for it for sometime but nobody that I've been to carries it (or even heard of it).

Thanks.

Great to hear about your success with such hard/impossible to keep corals. This hobby is all about making the impossible happen, . Maybe the missing element is in the food (bound chelated iron for example).

[ShaunW]

WOW, just read that Goni thread. AWESOME information, thanks for the link.

It's great that people are doing this type of "research" and providing such information. None of this existed when I started reefkeeping, had it, I would have not learned so many lessons the "hard way".

if u are looking for frogspawn i have some
