ELEGANCE

[jervismun]

Hi bros

I bought this piece of Elegance yesterday. Been opening quite a bit... however not to the fullest... still very shy

Can someone help ID this Elegance? Purple tip, pink/purple tentacles, fluorescent green center.

is going to be challenging to keep this fellow healthy. good luck pal.

Hrmz, is it a very hard coral to keep?

I read an article linked by bro Iantoh... some Elegance are plagued with unidentified disease... probably mine is just taking a bit longer to settle down (considering the big fluctuation of Sg yesterday)... I fed it Reefroid just now and the tentacles reacted to it

hi there jervis,

ive seen an elegance consume a whole prawn offered to it before, so it has quite a capable appetite, so feeding helps. it looks like your stocking list is working out to allow you to feed your reefroids and cyclopeeze and in doing so, providing for all your corals.

good lights too, and not too strong flow applies here too i guess. lovely purple tipped piece bro!!!

steven from lck110 showed me some pictures of his indonesian farm last weekend, and they had a blue tipped elegance there !!! blue tipped man! i cant wait to see that one bought in. and there was a single colony of blue coloured bubble coral too, which was stunning. we'd better keep our eyes peeled should those pieces be brought in i say.

cheers,

ian

Blue bubbles?!~ Wonder how much a piece like that would cost.

[iantoh]

me too man. tonny and steven wouldnt say.

[Qxnviolet]

Think it'll at least be in the hundreds....not worth it my opinion. I cant afford to pay a few hundred dollars for a piece of bubble....

[jervismun]

Who knows.... it can be dyed... anyone want purple Bubbles?

Ok back to the Elegance topic

Bro Iantoh, whole prawn feed to the center, right? Not the tentacles (Quite a newbie question)
