these are duncan corals. the other name is whisker. scientific name (Duncanopsammia axifuga). very hardy and proliferate quickly. i got myself a small frag with 5 heads too ^_^

this is not a tree coral. tree corals are soft corals belonging to the cauliflower family if im not wrong.

Aww if its below 50 bucks i'll get it already......it's the same cost as prata right?

True i love to feed my fishes with mysis!!They're cheap too.I only know brine shrimp is only good for those freshwater fish as i used to feed my angelfishes with brine shrimp.

I remembered that I have accidentally left my mysis on my defrosting cup for one day(play com games till forgot to feed for that day) and after i came back from school,there is this pungent smelling gas that is so strong.Then i realised it was the mysis...there goes one cube of it :D

Yeap, Duncans are. Found only in Australia I believe and being so, the government limits their exports of duncans per year. So in a way uncommonly seen in this trade (:

Happy Reefing,

Marc J.

Well so let me consider it as a rare find... :lol:

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.
