|  What king of coral is this?
I have for of them that came out of nowhere. Exciting stuff. I want to make sure I get the right supplement for them. It may be hard to see since they are small. _________ "The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing"

If they came out of nowhere, then they are already getting what they need...I would say. I cannot tell from the pic what it is. Could be feather dusters, tube worms, spaghetti worms....pic is to blurry  _________ http://www.3reef.com/uploads/BirdSig3.jpgI Love My Sig By John Hawkins!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow if you stare at that pic long enough-it reminds me of a bad acid trip I had 20 years ago! They look like feather dusters to me, or funny white headed getchygoos coming to get me from the land of purple nonsense. | |

Pdlman That's a good one stay away from that stuff. As far as supplements I use calcium + three. The coral has to be some type of anemones when I clean the rocks of with water they shrivel up into a ball. they are pink and look as they are filled with air. new to the coral game always had a fish only tank. | |

It might be one of these they only have four tentacle/fingers for now I guess. I will have to wait until they get bigger to see. | |
