Tree corals purchase.

[iarethesea]

Hi guys! Nice to know there is a little community of reefers in the area. 25yr old here and I've been in the hobby for some time. I was wondering if there was anyone out there that had a tree cora to sell. Preferably a carnation tree coral. Open to more options. or recommendations.

Thank you .

Welcome, Mostly sps here but wanted to respond. You'll see Kenya trees at the fish stores sometimes and even an occasional carnation. I never was able to keep a Carnation coral longterm but give us an update if you find one. Think Ive seen them at Ceasars from time to time. Grant

I couldn't keep carnation either long term either, maybe their is a trick to it but we do have everything else so come to our meetings and you will never walk away empty handed. The next meeting is at my house in Windsor.

Dendronephthya is the most common " carnation " coral, it requires lots of food and water motion.

James, I might be wrong, but doesn't Caesar's have quite a few non-carnation tree corals right now? My eyeballs don't even see softies anymore, but I think I remember seeing some last week.

Thanks guys. I know they are common for a lot of marine aquarists but it seems for some reason whenever i go to caesars i must be catching them way to late. Ill try and look more but maybe a carnation is not for me considering they may be hard to keep.

I was thinking about going to jofish in petaluma for the first time today. Thoughts?

Danny or Justin will probably chime in and tell you what they have at Jofish.

Kenya trees, green Napthias, and Colts should all be very easy to keep.
