you wouldn't happen to know the scientific name, would you Paul

Hey Gary,

Guess what .. I haven't forgotten your request .... but before that here's a Full shot of a Batch of 'em White Line Sponges .... from one of our local LFS just this past weekend :eek1:

Scientific name: Trikentrion flabelliforme - White Line Sponge

HTH,
Paul

Geez, did they get enough of them? LOL

 

[Kreeger1]

shame, probably most if not all will die too.

 

[jeremym420]

Yeah, that seems a bit excessive.

 

[Kent E]

But maybe if you have a species specific tank you can provide the required conditions.

 

[PauChi]

They're pretty hardy ... if they're kept in the right type of system.

Paul

how 'bout an update?

 

[vegaskid11]

Any updates on these?

 

[Capt_Cully]

To my knowledge thet didn't make it past 6 months.

 

[nwrogers]

Cully is this the Jeremy from ABC in Syracuse?

 

[Meisen]

I have a large colony that I have had now for 18 months. Again, no major growth but survival and maybe very modest growth anyway.

 

[Capt_Cully]

Cully is this the Jeremy from ABC in Syracuse?

yes

 

[jeremym420]

removed

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

bummer.

I wanted to know if either the sponge or the Parazoanthus survived and, if not, what might be the problem. I'm sure there's others here on RC that wondered as well.

 

[Grumpy Falco]

i so love them

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

so do I :wavehand:

 

[mr.maroonsalty]

Is anyone having luck with parazoanthids? Six or so years ago the Hedley's were selling red (para)epizoanthids. I tried them and didn't have luck; they said they were feeding them spirulina almost every time they walked past the low flow tank.
