Ya I wasnt sure. If it is like the Kenya, it should be a hardy coral though.

Ya I have so many that have spread throughout my tank I have to give them away. It's like a tree coral forest.

Good news! My devils coral survived the temperature spike. Now I was wondering what this spider web stuff is on the coral. Is it part of the coral?

It could be excreting its fluids... Kinda like pooping..

Thank you, how do you frag a coral?

 

[needmorecowbell]

All depending.. Some corals just get cut in half, like mushroom corals.. Others like yours I think you cut the excess heads of. From what I have heard it is quite easy to frag your coral.

Yes, I watched a video once and it seemed like it was easy. Have you convinced your parents to to let you get a reef yet? If you do get one, I would get the devils hand because it is hardy.

Still in the process, and I am going to do a soft coral tank with xenia, mushrooms, zoos, and devils hand.. Also maybe toadstool and gsp maybe

Here is a picture of the red mushrooms that came with the xenia.

Nice.. Those look pretty healthy, but I want floridea ricordea mushroom corals. This is one that mr. X had in his display tank for a fitness center
