new sun coral

My new sun coral. First pic is three minutes after putting in tank. Next is an hour and a half later, they were just fed, lights out (used flash). I need some vibrant color in my tank. I have to put a basket over coral so each polyp will get food and the critters in tank can't steal it away!!

 

sweet pickup ace. they look awesome. if you dont mind me asking, what was the cost of them. up here , an lfs was selling a frag for 100 i think. 2 heads on it. congrats again

 

You got to be kidding me. Here in socal I can get 2 head frags for 15bucks

 

unfortunately no im not . i could be wrong, but thats pretty much what i heard. i know theyre kept in the "expensive' tank. so if im wrong, theyre still 50 for it.

 

WOWZA'S

I can see 50 for one with at least 10-15 heads but not a measly 2 head

 

lol, welcome to canada. lol. the land of no reefs. a good deal was the same lfs havin a sale on. 3 for 100. bought an acro,monti and a blasto. if those suns were on sale, woulda snapped them up. lol

 

the 2 heads for $100 was probably a dendro. just my .02

 

those are cool too. Look like a giant sun polyp. My LFS also has black sun polyp frags

 

I just picked up some last week . . . got them for the whopping price of free. I went to a friends house to grab a few frags and he gives me this 4" x 3" rock half covered with these things . he loved the colors, but couldn't stand the target feedings and didn't have any good overhangs for them to sit under.

what are you feeding with? I have been using some frozen mashed krill (half cube per feeding) with a turkey baster and it seems to be working out well.
