Sun Coral 'Web'

[MatthewLaw]

Greetings All- I just purchased a Sun Coral frag and things appear to be going well. I noticed that there appears to be a 'web like' veil over the frag. Should I delicately take it off or is this not an issue? THanks!

Yea its best to just take that off. Lorna's right about the TB

 

[MatthewLaw]

thanks for the help! the coral appears to be opening up nicely!

 

[Lorna]

That is a nice piece.....get a pic with polyps out. You can train it to open when the lights are on....just feed it every day at the same time....lights on

 

[MatthewLaw]

that is exactly what i am doing (or at least trying to do). i will try and snap a few pictures tonight!

Where did you get it at LFS ? Looks like a nice piece, can't wait to see it open.

 

[MatthewLaw]

here are a few pictures... i actually got in from thatfishplace

Looks nice. It's only partially opened in that picture. Hopefully it will open more fully when it's getting fed more often.

[strout]
