What are some nice Granulosa and Loripes out there?

[ryshark]

I saw one at a lfs which they called the cherry corals blueberry loripes. Pretty cool looking. I'd like to get something with this type growth form

good luck finding a nice looking granulosa..I've been looking for a while now and can't find any available. Jump on the opportunity if you find one.

I didn't realize they were tough to find. I've only been recently looking around. But now that you mention it, thinking back from all the swaps etc... you're right. There are not a lot available.

I got a frag of the ice age from rockymountain frags, it's nice. Got it a couple weeks ago from Jared .

I put my name on the waiting list for the northern lights granulosa...its probably been at least a year and still no availability.

madmotorfinger7, could you post a pic of the ice age granulosa? I might have to take a plunge and get it.

 

[badmotorfinger7]

I will try. I purchased a nice maco lens for my camera a couple months back and have only gotten to use it a few times. I really love it and I have taken some beautiful pics but when you have 4 young kids it's hard to find the time to set up the tripod and all, LOL. I'll try though. It's relatively small frag though.

What kind of lighting and flow do you have it under?

 

[badmotorfinger7]

Its about 24" bellow a 250 w pheonix bulb and gets medium flow. The guy I got it from says low light and low flow keeps his looking good.

Speaking of Loripes, is this a loripes?

 

[dvanacker]

no ...

 

[cmm1970]

Well then, any ideas on an ID?

 

[dvanacker]

Sorry I was going to say saramentosa but I'm not sure the structure doesnt look right. Its nice what ever it is.

 

[grevedin]

Looks like a sarmentosa to me.

 

[Oceanman79]

agreed, sarmentosa.

Skittles granulosa looks like a nice one -

Excellent! I'm glad to have this mysterious member of the tank ID'd.

Best regards,
