Good: As far as I followed in this forum, pricing varies depending in the variety,, from few dollars to double digit polyps.. So starters can also afford to enjoy some zoas in there tank..

Hi, starting this thread to know things and experience on certain coral from experienced reefer here, will be helpful for new people like me.. Posting thing I heard or read of these coral here.. senior reefer help out with more practical things.. Good: Colourful hardy beginner coral, grows well. Easy to feed. Don't sting other corals..(i guess), can be propagated. Bad: Poisonous coral, can spread fast and over take other coral. May have some zoas based pest, which eats it- so caution on valuable purchase.. Ugly: dont get anything like that... Will it host clownfish? dont know..

ohh.. wat a colour... just love these pic.. priceless.. !!

Thanks to all bros for the links..

Is it for breeding bro..? Can the salt tubs be made use of..as that us easy available...

Very interesting thread bro.. u had a long journey .. nice tank both 4ft and 2 ft... Impressed by your 4ft though.. low tech with such nice coral maintenance..

Is there any place i n the forum where we discuss the the look outs on livestock selection..??

Understanding in hard way that there is lot to learn practically, than reading many pages in marine... Choosing livestock from LFS I am finding very tricky..proves to be a costly mistake..

The green part under the flesh in the left side of this pic..?? Is it growth or bad sign..?

It looks and behaves like earthworm...has line of dots as we see its body...don't know whether it can harm corals...??

Thanks for the info bro...

Found small growth like in under the lobo coral.. It is in green colour.. Is it good or bad

If bad what is the remedy
