Show us your Sweetest Soft Corals!

[BrokenSpoke]

My 40 gallon Breeder with softies. Always looking to add more. I want more zoas, Xenia, more GSP (yes, GSP...I want the back wall eventually covered in it) and any other softies. This thread really has me interested in so many.

What is the reddish colored coral almost in the center of the picture and the purple one in the bottom right?

Great corals guys! Thanks for the inspiration!

They are both red Kenya Tree.

Gah! I forgot about this thread. Now I'm subscribed haha.

Do any of you have a lemon tree coral? I purchased one from liveaquaria and the thing nearly died in shipment. it's only about an inch and slowly recovering.

This is one of my first corals and grown from a small frag to about 6" across in about a year.

Just made the jump from FW to SW with a coral only pico.

Green leather toadstool


Freshly cut Yuma straight onto the rock, it was growing on the tank back at the lfs.

Thanks! The spherical coral on the left is a frogspawn. He hasn't been fragged for 2 years and has grown quite huge. 70+ heads by my last count.

Hallzoo, I am completely jealous of that frogspawn. Totally cool. I had one with about 16 heads on it and I thought I was doing well with that.

My cespitularia is what got me into appreciating soft corals again.

I've been considering getting a cespitularia recently... is it invasice like anthelia or does it typically just grow like a tree?

I've seen it grow pretty quickly in a high nutrient system, spreading via stolons, but I wouldn't call it invasive. Just prolific. In my system the chaeto and xenia I use for nutrient export out-perform it so it actually has not spread much, just grown taller and made more branches like a tree.

Dropping babies? I have one that's doing that too. Should they be removed?
