Acerr, don't you have one? Do you find that it can't catch any food? I have to turn off all the pumps and put food right by its mouth. If I don't do that, it will starve because the coral can't catch food at all.

Also got this balanophyllia too!!:eek1: :eek1:
 
RobynT, thank you!

Did you get your dendro polyp yet? If so, how is it doing for you and do you have pictures of it? Remember to feed it!
 
qckwzrd -thanks! About time for me to limelight a bit and show you that the master will overtake the apprentice:D :D :D :D

I'm sure your gonna come up with some crazy stuff soon!

thecichlip -nice dendros, very pretty. What do you feed it and how often?

The balano is the same requirement as the dendro, non photosynthetic. Its suppose to get bigger than a dendro coccinea.

So in the hierarchy of size, it would be:

rhizo>balano>dendro

That would depend on the species of each. :)
 
Thats true Viper....thanks for pointing that out.

I was meaning

rhizo typus>balano ponderosa >dendro coccinea

Hows that?
 
mysis, cyclops, or squid every two to three days. I have yet to see any babies and a friend whose biggest is the size of my smallest has put out 3-4 babies and he only feeds a couple of mysis a week. I have fed about a 1/3 of a silverside before, so they can eat, but I have yet to see any real indications of babies.

Mikekman, where did you get your balano from?
 
You really do not need to feed daily or ever other day. I feed mine when I have time. Sometimes I would feed 3 days straight then take 3-4 days off. I have seen my 4 large polyp dendros grow 10 smaller heads in the last month doing this.
 
I feed mine about 3 times a week maybe more. Because I have a few suncorals in the tank so I feed alot. Just about all my Dendros have babies. Except the ones I go from Roes, but they are growing nicely and looking good. My First Dendro has 3/4 babies and my second one has one full baby and two more coming.
