Rescue Corals

[gemini aquarius(t)]

Saw this thread in another subforum, and thought it might be cool to show some before and after pictures of your rescued azoox corals. I just got two gorgonians from my LFS today, so I will add mine when/if they show improvement.

Unfortunately I didnt take befores of my rescues. I thought it would doom them for sure :lol: I do have some afters though.

This is after a couple months in my tank. Took that long just to get it to start opening.
Now its open all the time.

Same deal. This is one the store had for a month or so and it never opened. Took about a month in my tank before it started to really open up and eat. Now its open all the time. This pics a little old, this thing gets up to 6" now.

Nice! I have 2 spirals that are straight rescues and one blueberry gorg that is mostly a rescue (the store had 3 when I picked this one up in the beginning of March and the other 2 were 99% dead last week)

I did take some before pics and will hopefully have some afters soon!

It is the smaller rhizo and the balano colony below the larger rhizo, the smaller dendro was mostly starved when I got it as well and now fully fleshed with several babies. Frustrating to get corals in this shape because these are not difficult to keep, people get them and lose interest in feeding. Trying to get a sun coral to open right now.

Just got him today. Feeding well in my tank already! Cant wait to see what happens

I got a sea fan (Unknown ID) and another, larger, australian tubastrea that I am trying to rescue.

The sea fan has a couple branches with a couple polyps on each that arent connected to the other branches, and the tubastrea is just a matter of time and feeding to get it back, but I did spot an aptasia, bubble algae, and hair algae on the skeleton already, so I will have to take care of those soon.

The tubastrea from the first pic is eating very well and is almost always out with all of the polyps, so I have high hopes for it as well!

There he is. Any ID, or pointers on helping it out?
