    Encrusting Coral and Gravel?????

    Encrusting Coral ID Needed

    Hi all, I got some frags from my LFS yesterday and could use an ID on one of them. It's a dark orange color with a yellow/green undertone. It's got a fuzzy texture and has little orange bumps throughout. Thanks!

    It's always exciting when you realize your first coral is starting to encrust and is growing!! :-) Actually this Corky Sea Finger gorg is my third coral after my first two corals died at my hands making this gorg the first of my replacement corals and the first to begin to encrust. I also...

    Encrusted Coral Skull Thread

    I started imagining a crazy art piece of an aquascape like a castle that some guy who makes the CaribSea rock just put together with spare time and it got me to googling encrusted skulls so here are some cool photos and it would be cool for you to add more if you have some :)

    Encrusting coral ID

    Hi everyone, bought this encrusting sps, looks maybe like a leptastrea of some kind but I don’t see any kind of big polyps, maybe it’s closed but not too sure, any help with an ID would be great

    Can Leptoseris be grafted or touch other Leptoseris?

    I really fell in love with my Neon green Leptoseris so I got another small frag of Jack-O for $100. I feel like they’re really rewarding as a beginner SPS because they grow fast and are pretty hardy. I want to collect more morphs of Lepto and I was wondering if Lepto can be in close proximity to...

    Are there different kinds of Star Polyps or GSP?

    I saw these two frags a couple days ago in my City store and went back today because i couldn't stop thinking about them, they're really green hehe, I was wondering are there different varieties of GSP and what colors can you get them in?

    Help Selecting Shelf vs. Encrusting

    We’re new to the coral game and I’m trying to understand how to pick shelf vs. encrusting corals for our new 200g build. This is especially challenging with all of the stupid coral names out there. My understanding is that monti capricornis for instance will form a shelf, while certain others...

    Identification help - new coral

    Hi all, I picked up a new piece from the LFS this Friday. They had previously cut off a hunk (about 2" x 1" x 1" - like half of a tennis ball and hollow inside) from a large, established coral (maybe 2 feet all the way around!) that I bought. NOT sure what this is, but I'm guessing some sort...

    Do you grow coral on cool things?

    Just wondering what creative folks we have here:) post photos of your tanks with coral frowning on something cool! Or even growing in a cool way! In my tank I have a Goni on top of a tree statue:)

    How to stop GSP growth???

    I added a small frag of encrusting Green Star Polyps and gave it its own rock island. Fast forward a year, and it's grown so much that it stretched over the sand and finally found my main rock work. I was too slow in stopping it, and it's now growing up towards my other corals. Last night I...

    What to do with plastic frag plugs?

    I got an SPS set 2 - 3 weeks ago with corals mounted on some plastic frag plugs. My concern is that I don't really want these plugs glued onto my rocks, but on the other hand the corals are already encrusted on to the plugs and I'm afraid to cut them. These are my very first SPS and I don't...

    Encrusting and branching sps on the same rock

    hey guys! First thread post so not sure if I’m posting in the right section. I tried to look for information on this but haven’t seen any. Does anyone put their encrusting sps on the same rock as a branching one. So example an encrusting sps with a branching acropora on the same rock. Would...

    California Green Toadstool for Montipora

    Green Toadstool frag was a impulse buy, didn't think about it covering my other corals in the future, had it for about a month now. Looking to trade it for a Montipora with nice coloration to fill in the empty plateau in the tank, since it receives pretty high flow. I'm in San Fernando Valley (SFV).
