what is this?...coral, polyp, mushroom?

[dreams]

Morning!

Can anyone ID this for me?....any special needs?

 

[fkbsar]

Isn't that some kind of solomon island zoanthid?

 

[dreams]

i have no clue...

another question i have......one of my feather dusters lost it's plume.......i moved it into a breeder basket because the angel keeps nipping at him.....how do i know if he is still alive in his tube

 

[fkbsar]

My feather duster lost his crown and I left him where he was and he built another tube and came back, not as big, but just as nice. I don't know what happens when you move them. I know that if you touch the tube lightly, or what's left of it, you should be able to feel it in there - it'll wiggle.

thanks Fran

he hasn't come out of the tube....i think the angel has terrorized him.....leaves my other one alone, though....i did see him once, but he pulled back in quickly, day before yesterday, i think

 

[fkbsar]

Make sure you feed him plenty of phyto.

i have been "spraying" phyto directly on them....how often do you think is optimum?

 

[fkbsar]

I used to feed every other day.

thanks, Fran!

 

[fkbsar]

You're welcome. I know if I've miss spoke someone will correct me.

put the phyto up current from them so that it gently flows over the back of there feathers, dont blast them with it

those will/should turn into some nice zoo's.

thanks burntout,

okay, i got that they are button polyps & need little care.....says to place them on the lower level because of the lack of their light requirement.....and work well as a filler.....does that sound about right?
