Sun corals are non-photosynthetic so it does not matter if they are under light or not.

I have mine right out under strong lighting...

To get them open... you have to introduce some form of stimulant eg. strong-smelling food into the water. My sun corals will open up once they detect my hands in the water (not joking), or when I feed GPs, cyclop-eze, brineshrimp, mysis etc.

You have to target feed each individual polyps as they are in fact seperate organisms and not part of the 'Borg Collective', so to speak.

I was once a member of BORG... HEhe...oh well...archmage was too addictive..had to break away from it...

Quit it immediately after I made it to hall in B3...I was in the first batch in the hall of fame. :eyebrow:

Always something more important than fish.

We are offtopic.. but the Borg is part of the Star Trek universe... I think your version of BORG is probably some clan name in Archmage... sounds like a wimpy wand-waving fairy game... haha... sorry... ;)

erm, if u've been diving b4, u'll notice most sun corals found in the wild are attached up-side-down to the underside of rocks...almost shaded completely from the sun... can try glueing them that way...heh

FnC :D

But then....target feed?

U mean if I squirt food on them they will open immediately?

They will only bloom during meal time?
