Senior Reefer yikai Posted March 2, 2010 Senior Reefer Share Posted March 2, 2010 Finally the expensive sarcophyton. Probably the only one in Singapore. If you compare the colors of the corals above to this photo, you will roughly get an idea how much more fluorescent this is. Unfortunately, this is not the ultimate sarcophyton, there is one more species which has polyps twice as long and costs about 150% the price of this. My next target.. ITS LOVELY! so when can go over to see it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuEl Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 At first I thought this is the so-called Tyree LE toadstool. http://www.bostonreefers.org/forums/showth...1935&page=2 But..it's not the same. When the polyps are withdrawn, the leather is green.

FuEl Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 5 Years ago I was foolish enough to sell off this gem. Since then, I have never come across another 100% green GSP like this. The ones that are green are a different species, with thinner polyps and softer stolons.

FuEl Posted March 11, 2010 Author Share Posted March 11, 2010 A very unique find, very uncommon. Usually polyps of this coral are white/brown. The polyps of this is neon green. I cannot even find a photo of this specimen on the internet.

FuEl Posted March 11, 2010 Author Share Posted March 11, 2010 Next on the hitlist: Sinularia brassica, neon green. I've only remembered seeing brown/beige ones. http://www.lecorals.com/products/misc/greencabbage.html Quote Always something more important than fish. http://reefbuilders.com/2012/03/08/sps-pico-reef/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot even find a photo of this specimen on the internet. 2 things caught my eyes while i was there. This piece of coral and a prehistorical looking yellow fish with fins like wings. Looks more like a water chameleon. Please put in a photo. I like to get one too. Wonder it it reef safe? rgds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuEl Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 It's a yellow fuzzy dwarf lionfish, yellow is the rarest color morph. The other is a black-footed lionfish. Lions are generally safe with corals. However, don't trust them with anything that can fit in their mouths.

Everytime see other reefers stock damned nice. cheers The yellow fuzzy seems to be more available the past year or so. So far I've seen about 6 specimens. I've killed 2 and my friends have killed 2. One was at a shop but the whole tub of fish was reserved so I could'nt get it.
