Red Flower Pot

[garod82]

I want one of these pretty bad. What's a good price for one and how long do they usually last?

under 20 bucks, mayb eunder 30 at some stores. and I think only like a year or maybe less. I had mine for like 13 months, it lowly disenegrates. But they are neat the way they are real spread out sometimes and smaller other times.

They are considered one of the corals you should not try to keep. Shearch RC and you will find threads about them. Their is a good thread about keeping and feeding them. The funny thing is early in the hobby they were considered easy to keep. If you skim your tank heavly you will need to feed it. I seams they prefer a dirty tank.

Hey Irvine Man where have you found a Red Flower Pot for under $20, I've only seen them for over $60

RED flower pot

red flower pots are much harder to come by and way more expensive. i'd say ur looking at about $50 plus depending on the size. i've kept my red flower pots for over 1.5 years now. i've also tried keeping the neon green ones with the reef roids but they still dont last very long.

go checkout fish warehouse, I was there just last night and they have two flower pots; one of which is red. They are not a reef store and dont carry too many corals but prices on what they do have are fair.

1.5 years huh. That's pretty awesome. By the way, that reef roids works pretty good?

I had a green one for about 1.5 years before it really began to die off.

the key to keeping them looking good is to directly dose them with iron suppl. The problem is I did not know how that would effect my tank, so I stopped.
