chamty Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Finally managed to lay my hand on this rare gem... It's extremely shy and very small (only around 1.5cm in length).. I've been feeding it Henry's food and Kent Marine ZooPlex.. not sure if it is actually eating (too difficult to observe as it is hiding behind some rocks in my nano).. Any advice on its care?

Mine mainly softies (more than half are cheap indo ones!) and hardy sps.. It's not whether they are indo or watever zoos...you managed to make them look wow! Your tank is an inspiration to me and it proves that softies and LPS dominated tank can look just as good as a SPS dominated tank, if not, better...(thumbs up) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambystoma82 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 red PPE do appear time to time..(it actually depends on wheere e farmer digs e coral from) if they harvest finish e spot mayb hv to wait a while b4 they find PPe in e sea againz.. but u must c carefully.. cus sometimes e reds r not so red.. normally is dull red.. put ur red to higher spot they might bcum magicians like mine.. white dots may appear ard e mouth of e poylps.. red PPEs r damn hardy lahz.. i accidentaly slice one of e poylps it heal back on e spot.. but tht doesnt apply to other corals stuning them...
