Hardy SPS..... OXYMORON?

[BlackPirhana]

Hey guys, are there any hardy sps to put in my 10 nano with 96watt p/c lighting?

Monti cap, bali slimer.

 

[ReeferMonkey]

Anacropora.

 

[damienkee]

pavona or porites

 

[REEF-DADDY]

slima

 

[Wiskey]

Montipora!

Whiskey

 

[Malolo]

Seriatopora has been the least demanding of all the sps Ive worked with. I'd agree with Montipora and Porites also.

 

[an-sps]

green monti cap would do good

 

[Ti]

monti
python

get a frag from someone, much hardier than anything wild

How bout a pocillopora. IMO More hardy than the species others have list so far.

....and like Twon8 said, aquacultured frags from a fellow reefer are more hardy, not to mention the ethical and moral dillemas of collecting from the wild.

hhmmm... for me, pavona is the most hardy... even my tank crash twice, this fella still survive untill today.... the rest like monti, pocci, stylo etc etc.... all gone...

Pocillapora has been my hardiest - and was the one that seemed to the best grown under Power Compacts.

Perhaps a Montipora as well - but color/growth were a bit `off' IME for Montis and Acropora in my PC tank. With great water quality it can be done ... just personally not as rewarding as under more intense light.
