What type of corals are these? I bought them without knowing the names..

 

[kay-bee19]

The first one looks like frogspawn and the second appears to be zoanthids.

 

[Sniperhank]

frogspawn and candy cane?

 

[Jason7894561230]

Frogspawn and zoas

 

[paulweck]

Frogspawn and zoas is my guess as well.


On a side note be careful with the heater u have I had the same one and the blue paint dots started flaking off and getting in my water. I saw some of my fish eat it and spit it right out once. I just remover all the blue paint off and it was fine.

OK thanks guys

All my blue is peeling off my heater as well... i keep seeing pieces float around and i say hey! Whats that?... oh yea more heater paint.

 

[angelf]

Mine is not maybe your temp is really high i keep mine at 75

 

[Hobgob]

How long did it take for the paint to start peeling off?

 

[Travis55]

My heater is a couple years old. Water temp is 79*

 

[paulweck]

Mine only took about 8 months to start peeling off at a temp of 78 degrees

 

[angelf]

No mine will always stay at 75 if it does it always has a one year manufacture warranty...

 

[paulweck]

The price of the heater isn't what bothered me it was my fish eating the paint if I lost a fish I would of Been livid.. good luck

 

[Hobgob]

I'd just watch for paint maybe it

 

[Feelthereefer]

Whats your water temp should be a little higher than 75.. 79 80 is good number..

 

[Travis55]

I keep mine at 79-80 as well and i wonder if thats why they flake? I had another heater crap put and i came downstairs to see my tank was 52 degrees and my huma, clowns and damsels were still alive!

 

[ocminpin]

YES! That's the Top Fin heater that killed my fish! It was brand new... Had it 1 day.... The water set at 79... 2 perfectly healthy mollies died overnight. The water temp didn't raise and was still 79 in morning.. Only thing I could think is was a mercury or chemical leak..
I took it back and spent a few more dollars on the black Aqueon heater... Haven't had a problem and I love it! Good thing cause my mollies "kiss it"...
P.S. Those are really nice corals

 

[Sniperhank]

I have an aqueon heater as well. Great piece of equipment.
