Photos of My First Corals!

Rate this Entry
As promised, photos of my first corals! I'm so happy! It's been 24 hours and nothing is dead (yet):

Zoanthus:


A single head of branching hammer coral (Euphyllia parancora):


I love hammer corals and plan to make them the centerpiece of my tank. This one has bright green tips and brown tentacles, but I hope to find another hammer with white tips and green tentacles. I may add a frogspawn as well. I know a LFS that is going out of business at the end of this month, so I may pillage his frags for more easy corals soon even though I met my coral quota for the month.

The water is still cloudy, but seems to have improved slightly. I decided to change out the filter floss once a day instead of once a week and see if that helps.

    Those are both nice pieces. Give them time and you'll have much more to enjoy.
