Looks like some kind of chalice

 

[manvsalt]

It came attached to some brain coral, do you think the brain will damage it?

Not sure if its a chalice.. Chalice will not lose to a brain

 

[manvsalt]

Cheers for the replys. Should I try to frag it from the brain?

looks like some palys came attatched aswell. Nice score.

 

[manvsalt]

Between that and the brain do you think the plays have a chance?

 

[reepher315]

Do they open? Id try to frag them off is so as long as it wont harm the brain.

I'd frag both paly and chalice off. Better survival rate for all, as long as infections doesn't happen after fragging
Just chip a piece of the dead brain skeleton with the coral attach to it, so there won't be open wounds.

They will all fight for place on a small brain that close to each other.

But good score anyway

 

[manvsalt]

Gonna get fragging as soon as then! Cheers for the info guys!

also having trouble with this sun coral. Had it for three weeks and it hardly opens too feed? Any tips guys?

 

[billdogg]

Sun corals have a pretty dismal survival rate in most aquariums. They are nocturnal and require daily feedings of every polyp. They ARE NOT photosynthetic! If you can get it to feed after lights out, and then gradually move feeding time closer to lights on time, you may eventually get it to extend it's polyps during the "day".
