Medusa coral..

[pop]

I understand that the coral on the left is called something like "Medusa". I read a article saying that we can feed it with live brine, microplankton. Where do i actually feed it cos i don't see any mouth or opening..Just spray the food on it? (can i feed it with frozen food and those liquid coral food then ?)

Another qns is : Whats the name of the coral on the rightside in the pic? Can't seem to find the name anywhere.. Thanks all.

hmm..the left side coral looks like a leather coral to me..

cant be sure..

and the right hand coral seems to be a sea fan..

cant be really sure too..

got a better pic of both in closeup?

The left side is a christmas tree coral... when it is scared it will contract like a white ball like that....... quite hard to maintain in an aquarium... but since you have it in your tank.. wish for the best and target feed it when u see the "branches" is out... liquid food will be fine.........

On the right is a sponge......not to sure what type though...

yes i think the left one is a christmas tree coral... there shd be plenty of spikes near the base... not easy to feed... try phytoplankton... shd work.. my was growing well until temperature spike while i was overseas... then it just wasted away

Ya, its a christmas. It does shrink into a ball when i touches it.. The other closer view of the yellow thing.. still cannot find the name of it. Anyway, all this bought from iwa.. Btw thanks all for the help.

its a sponge. mentioned in julian sprung's inverts book. not easy to keep. especially when it would had been removed from water during your purchase.
