thairun Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 My green fungia have daughter of colony (process call anthocauli), surprisingly for a year with me a hitch hiker seem to be open brain orangy in color suddenly appear from no where. In my knowing, never in my fragging tank do I keep brain coral. It 'tompang' house on the mother fungia skeletal. Religiously feeding the quarry to see what actually it is and the color look unique. This is what make reefing and propagation wonderful in this hobby! Will keep updates on the finding.

thairun Posted August 1, 2009 Author Share Posted August 1, 2009 Mmmm...seems like the Mother Colony is having 'extra-marital affair' mate ! Haha but kind of fishy ha! Last month discovered a tiny orangy plate looking coral about 2mm. Then now about 10mm revealed better appearance more to brain coral. Wonder if i can really know how really it come about, so can really make fortune out of them Cheers.

thairun Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 Latest update, but really could not figure out actual genus. Anyone can ID? After about 6 mnths, developed multiple mouth. Will trim the base to isolate the quary.

thairun Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 As promised, the updates. Discovered this coral ID after the growth to 6cm dia. More look like Oulophyllia - family of favia. Mind its sweeper tenticle. Happy reefing!
