You still have not defined what you mean by super sun coral <_<

But if you tame me, we shall need each other.

To me, you will be unique in all the world.

To you, I shall be unique in all the world...

You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.

At least show how is it different from other sun corals

I think i know what he meant by super sun coral. I saw those mega size sun corals in Hong kong before. One polyp before blooming has a circumference of 20cents. And one colony has about 5 or six polyps. The entire colony typically measures 3 by 3 inches.

In fact i have been asking LFS why those are not brought in and we only receive those puny ones that are only as thick as a pencil. :D

Super suncorals were selling for 25US dollar per colony. ;)

Aiyah..this kind of thing has no fixed market value one. As long as you like it enough and can afford. Imagine rics were selling for 50 dollars per polyp and people still buy. Those rics grow like weeds in the wild :lol:

However, my concern is about the difficulty in keeping sun corals healthy. They require dedicated care and husbandry. Individual polyp feeding is highly recommended. If you have any experience with the normal suncorals you will know what i mean. They usually recede and waste away if you do not have the right conditions.

Show us the pics. Not open also nevermind. I am truly interested to see those mega suncorals you have. :D
