I didnt know their name....I thought they were birds nest... so did you purchase some? If so how long have you had them?

As with all NPS it is just a matter if finding the right food. Pm Aquabacs he was having some success. He was at least able to photograph the polyps which are ultra ultra fine hair like structures. They need really small food. I think along the size of bacteria.

I wonder if ZEOvit would work well with these corals? "Shaking" your ZEOlites is supposed to send millions of bacteria in the form of a bacterial film into the water column. They state that acropora and other corals feed on this bacteria.

Some already do use Zeovit in there systems just for this
