black sun coral

Just a couple pic's of my black suns feeding + 4 new heads

I got a black sun coral early last week (Tues I believe) and have yet to see it open up. Someone told me that they will only eat when they put their polyps out, which is causing me to start worrying about it starving, since I know they don't produce any of their own food from light. How long...

Sorry that I have not been around at all in a long time, life has kept me busy. tank was running good till a week ago when my son put some thing in my top off watter and I did not notice till I had added about 20 gallons and My two clams died. I lost a couple corals as well. Somehow now I have...

I saw some frags of sun corals the other day at the LFS and I just think they're beautiful. Does anyone have any pics?- what can you tell me about how to keep them? - i.e. compatibility, flow/lighting, feeding, etc.????

Dang it I missed the rebuild off by five days! I am stuck in the vet hospital most days and can't check this board all the time and this time it cost me. Oh well. I'm still going to have a rebuild thread going, but I won't be included in the contest. I'm always a day late and a dollar short. I...

Hi Everyone I've been saving my money and it's time for another coral shopping event! Why do I call it an event? Well because my best friend comes down from Albany and we spend the day going from store to store picking corals we like. I have a 150 gallon tank with a 50 gallon sump. I have 2...

Due to my girlfriend and I breaking up, I am having to sell my 75g reef tank. I have decided to move and will no longer be able to care for it. I haven't taken care of it for the past 5 or 6 weeks due to being out of town and dealing with this mess. I would love to sell the whole thing for $650...

Ouch......just a little cleaning/rearanging and............CHOMP:lol:

I have a question (kinda like how long does it take water to boil or for grass to grow, I know). In your experience, how long does it take a tiny frag to get to a good size? Months/yrs? If your Ca levels are good, etc. Just wondering. I know it's a question that most probably will not...

I purchased a bright orange SUN CORAL just 3 days ago....and from what I've read it needs to be in a highflow area of the tank for the tentacles to come out. I went and bought a small 50GPH submersible..... postioned it in the tank to highflow the sun coral and WHHHAAALLLLAAAH.... all the...

Just wondering if anyone can ID this as a dedro or just big sun polyps. They are yet to open. Sorry for the pinkness and there are also some black sun polyps to show a size comparison.

well yesterday, i sold the tank, and finally got to go to Capuccino Bay! It was awesome! I had a hard time choosing what to buy, there was so much! I ended up getting a rock with 6 purple and blue ricordea, a rock with 150+ yellow skirt green fading into blue center, and i also got a yellow...

the black insides come stretching out when it gets dark out, and if you look close on the bottom left you'll see a third arm, or whatever, starting to grow. It'll pull the black things down below the level of the rim of the body. Please can anyone help me figure out what it is? It hitchhiked...

My goal is to make a nano to house non-photosynthetic corals. I picked this Eclipse up at the LFS for $15. I'm going to add a small powerhead and a heater. Let's see what happens.

Hello all, I have an orange sun coral that has been doing well for almost a year, but I dont have a proper tank for it anymore. The coral needs to be fed atleast twice a week, preferrably mysis or a mix of frozen foods. I am open to almost any thing F/T (within reason of course), and I will be...
