or Chili coral!
So a cpl years ago I was given a "rescue" frag of this. After a month or so in one of our DT's I noticed it wasn't improving and actually looked like it was on its way out. I tossed it in my sump and for a LONG time it was under the crashing flow of the DT drain.
When I setup the 4.4g temperate tank several weeks ago I was picking through some of the lr in the sump to use for an aquascape. I found the chili coral all puffed up but with no polyp extension but markedly improved in health!
The Korallia nano offers almost too much flow in the 4.4 but I figured I'd try the chili in there b/c of the pounding flow it rec'vd in the sump.
Here it is after the lights came on this morning!
I feed the system daily with a small amount of Cyclopeeze as well as Spectrum Pellets.
