walt smith posted this in his weekly stock in facebook as A. hyacinthus.

i myself also dunnot but there's another photo in his facebook that shows the whole colony in a better angle and got the typical hyacinthus shape. bah. everything looks the same to me.

anyway here's another pic from liveaquria.

Actually, my knowledge on sps also "pte ltd". But it sure is a power piece! Bro Clee got this?

In fact, there are several sub-species assigned under the Acropora hyacinthus group...

Acropora hyacinthus Group

Tables, calices very even; digitate first, then grow to tables; labellate corallites

Acropora hyacinthus - Tables or plates; short, regular, rosette branches; wine pink

Acropora surculosa - Fuzzy, thick, tapering branches, and purplish color. Digitate with thick, stubby, tapering branches that tend to have numerous wart-like, stubby side branchlets that do not develop much. Branches appear fuzzy, especially toward their base, as a result of expanded polyps. Polyps have one especially lonf tentacle which is responsible for this fuzzy appearance. Colonies are brownish purple.

Acropora cytherea (= Acropora symmetrica) - tabletop with anastomosing branches, can slide fingers through spaces, at least partway; crumbly texture

Acropora microcladus - small tables (50 cm maximum), pink, just subtidally at reef edges

Acropora paniculata - more open anastomosing than Acropora cytherea, more delicate; very fine structure

[yikai]

so you're the one who got the black tang.

make sure it eats... ALOT.

at least 3 times a day. a zebrasoma tang this size is not easy especially to keep the body weight.

It's on sale now in Iwarna...buy one get one free... so I get another pack of Pellet for free...

You are right..the little fellow luv the chips so much...

Today.. I also added some furnitures to make it more like home for the little blackie..

[clee123]

I think the next few days is critical for this little blackie...

Saw it shaking it body couples of time .... I think it is going to get ich soon....

any idea I can prevent this from happen?? or just fingers crossed??

Try getting those red grape algae plants and dimmer lightings.

Yet it is a challenge...

shaking can mean flukes or ich.

if it's ich, it will be very dangerous for a tang this size.

the consolation is that zebrasoma tangs usually more resistant to ich. but a tang this size, keep your fingers crossed..

Since it's already in betta box, if there's ich developing jux quickly catch it out and QT. Hypo will be a better choice than copper for such a small fish.

thanks bro... I had already put some smallest grape in the betta box as titbits ... understand this is it natural source of food ... but not sure it can help to flight the inch..??
