sun coral(tubastrea)

[dohc97]

Due to new responsabilities at work and an uneven schedule i think i want to trade my sun coral, its a very nice coral very good colors when its out. I just dont think ill have the time to take care of it for awhile. Lots of big plans at work, weird schedules and probably out of city travel. My family can deal with feeding the fish but i dont think they can(or want to) feed the coral. Im looking at trading him for frags of soft corals or zoas. If anyone is interested please let me know, so i can make a decision. here is a couple pics:

Wow, you've done a great job w/it! I hope you find someone as dedicated to hand-feeding it as you have been.

what are you looking for as a trade? i always wanted a sun coral

Basically trying to see what people will offer for him, Im looking to get soft corals, really colorful zoo's, maybe an lps coral. My tank doesnt have many corals in it, so looking to start getting my collection up. I got a couple frags from another user today in exchange for a crab and some snails but other than that my tank is devoid of corals. colorful is a plus.

i have a 4 head hammer coral, I could cut a piece of my gorgorian which is photosynthetic, I have shrooms, but not sure on fraggin them...they would be hard to mount. let me know what you think and I will see what else would fall into this category.

Im kind of a beginner so people offering corals, if you have pics i would appreciate it. I know what hammer corals, mushrooms, zoas, frogspawn, bubble corals, and other popular ones look like. Like i said really want colorful stuff.

I thought gorgonians were non-photosynthetic?

 

[softbal4]

not all of them. the yellow is non. there are purple, brown, and a couple others that are photosynthetic which makes them much easier to maintain and they are alot hardier in my opionion, never had much luck with the yellow even spot feeding.

dohc. don't have a digital to post photos other then a cell phone which is not ideal. a hammer is bright yellow green tipped. shrooms purple and green. gorgorian i have a purple with purple polyps and a larger variety that is brown with really cool brown extending polyps that my hawks love. anyhow let me know. I also have some lime green zoos but could only frag about 20 polyps. anyhow let me know, nothing more i can really think of.
