FS or FT: Sun Polyps

[Stray32]

I bought a small colony of sun polyps (20-25 heads) a few months ago, thinking I would be able to dedicate the extra time needed to keep them healthy, ie nightly feedings, but I have neglected them as of late and a few of the heads have died. So rather than see them perish at my hand, I would like to sell or trade them to someone that can take care of them.

Let me know what you have to trade, looking especially for rare or bright palys/zoas. Or I will sell the colony for $50.

Will post picture tonight.

I may be interested, what is involved in feeding?

Each head needs to be fed 2 or 3 times a week, I just feed mysis shrimp with a turkey baster. They only come out at night, actually when my daylights go off and I just have my actinics on, they start to come out. They really are a nice looking coral, they just require a bit of extra care, and unfortunately I have been neglecting them a bit.

I took a picture last night, I will post it in a few hours.

Would like to avoid shipping if possible, but will certainly consider it. You guys would be surprised what I would trade this for...one of two polyps of a nice looking paly is all I ask lol.

I got some nice black cherry zoas that I could trade a frag of for your sun coral!

Let me see what I have in my tank that might be ready to trade and I'll see if you're interested in any of it... I'd love to try those suns out. If you get the chance, post up that picture soon.

Here ya go, sorry it took so long.

Stray, do you have any pictures of the heads opened up? I've been doing some research and found out that you can train them to eat during the daylight hours after a while of daytime feeding. I'm going to send you a PM soon with some of the stuff I have available for trade and see what you think....

 

[o0xerog0o]

Also, how often have you been feeding them lately?

 

[Stray32]

I feed them probably 3 times a week, which i know isnt enough. I will try and get a pic tonight when they are all open.

Here ya go
