I have this acro in my tank. Is this one?

 

[rigleautomotive]

an older shot of mine.Havnt taken any recent ones but it is still doing well . I fragged it a few months ago and its taking its time growing back to full size

 

[allsps40]

Its on my wish list. But I need a bigger tank, running out of room.

This is my colony. I've had it for a few months now and seems to be doing well. Even a couple of the pieces that I fraged (to get it to fit nicely) have encrusted nicely.

Bere is my Coral.

 

[MammothReefer]

don't know how you guys do it. This is one coral I just can't keep.

This colony is about 9", grows like weeds

Some of the corals in this thread looks more like A. Caroliniana or similar to me.

Here's my Suharsonoi.

ooohhhh, just saying the name make my mouth water up.

You have to be a sps nut to like these guys but almost every acroholic has this piece at the top of their wish list.

The name just brings up memories. I had a large colony of it. In October I went to aruba for a week and my display tank crash. Lost this colony and a large colony of an ice enchinata. Made me sick.

What's your best guess on why the tank crashed?

Do you run a calc reactor? How are you managing your chemistry?


Thanks in advance.

I came from Sabah, island of Borneo where recent studies found a rare Suharsonoi acropora in our water. Basically Suharsonoi are deep water acros, rarely found high up on reef ecosystem. Most of them (at least in Sabah) are found at slightly turbid water with constant laminar water flow. Those found high up near the surface will tend to grow with much shorter stem. I wish I have one in my tank
