Pictures of Corals Feeding

[fierceseaman]

Hey guys I've been looking around for pictures of specifically Acans and Chalices feeding, i.e. tentacles out, really hungry looking. I've searched google a good bit and haven't seen any that really looked that great. Does anybody have any?

Here's an old pic from when I used to feed krill to my acans. I've since re-thought that and feed smaller food such as mysis. But this IS a cool shot.

^ haha nice! Just that it takes damn long for all that krill to go down.

 

[fierceseaman]

Awesome man, that looks great!

racerw: were those shots taken at night? did you have the lights off?

 

[reef321]

Wow, they can open their mouth really big!

i have the same coral! do you have an ID for it?

 

[gotfrogs]

I sure don't PL-Reef. I bought it as a small frag back in August 2005. It has grown a bunch for me but I have no idea what it is. It puts out it's feeder/sweeper tentacles every night when the lights go out.
