[zenus]

Hi there,

recently, my fren gave up reefing and passed me some of his corals.

the thing is, some of them i dont know wat is it and how to take it.

anyone living near sembawang or nearby to pop over my house and give me advice?

[Vinoth]

You can post the pics of the coral here for identification

[zenus]

my digi just lend out..

hmm.. also, i think pics are not very clear leh...

hope to have someone come over and take a look and give me some good advice.

if my tank not fit for keeping, i may even consider giving them away..

1. Elephant Ear

2. Frogspawn

3. Yuma

4. Bubble

5. "

6. SPS

I think most of them lack of care and light thus you get this funny colour.

Pls correct me if I'm wrong. But don't flame me ok.

[jquek]

1-4. As what neokn stated. Just to add that 4 is a pearl bubble.

5. Hammer coral (euphylia ancora??) - looks bleached.

6. I think it looks like glove/clove polyp that is not opening up.

[jquek]

Oh.... and I think #2 is not frogspawn but a torch coral.

[ReDDeviLs]

all looks bad.. if they dont survive in your tank.. dont feel bad.

[zenus]

yahlor... all not doing well (no thanks to my fren)

how can i improve?

is there a chance for them to recover?

[neokn]

Feed them and give them ample light.

[zenus]

hmm.

okie!

I'm diying my own T5.

tomolo shld be done.

hope they will grow better...

if not, will think of giving away or sell at a small token...

[neokn]

How many t5 do you intend to install? How deep is your tank?

[zenus]

my tank is 1.5 feet deep

[neokn]
