Unique cup coral


Recommended Posts

Think I saw it in the new LFS along Serangoon, if so you have bought yourself a gem. Nice colouration and its polyps are very bloosom...

Yep..from Golden Octopus..the one which escaped many eyes..except yours and maybe a few others.. :D

Always something more important than fish.

Still waiting for the polyps to open. Other sps polyps opening without any problems..somehow this piece does'nt open up that easily. :pinch: But no signs of tissue recession or anything, still seems rather healthy.

hi fuel,

is that a blue coloured morph of tubastrea micrantha? or something else? it kinda looks like it, plus you mentioned the green tinge. all the same, lovely coral there! great find. i havent had time to go by this golden octopus yet, but shall do so soon.

try dissolving a cube of mysis in a bowl and squirting the resultant seawater with mysis juices over the colony? should entice polyp extension.--- just my two dcents ya.

cheers,

ian
