Is Myfrags Flaming Krak Paly a Krakatoa?

[terminallance]

Ya I moved from Oregon to Texas in the pat year, in Oregon the ome chalice is $50 per eye while here in Texas I've found a mini colony (4ryes) at a lfs for $80 then found pulsing Xenia here for $50 and was dumb founded at that price! I feel like the best place to get things is sometimes other hobbiest

See on the left side on the bottom where it looks like it raised up a little bit? That is the baby Krakatoa polyp right there.... You can barely see it in the picture.... From what I can tell, it seems to be a very hardy polyp and grows pretty fast.... It is looking better every day and getting larger.

Kevin what lighting and flow would you recommend as I want mine to be good when I get it

It actually likes pretty intense light... It is almost up midway in the tank directly under the Radion not set off to the side.... I do have the radion set at about 65% peak at mid day. I did start it out on the side under indirect lighting.... Every ones tank is different so that is what I would recommend to do and see how it reacts before blasting it with light.

Saw this pic online. Is it a legit Krakatoa?

 

[shawy2510]

Not sure tbh. We need decent sharp macro pics

these zoas are all farmed overseas from the same pieces. They're making those 'aquacultured' zoa rocks and sticking a couple of each ultra zoa on each rock.

I GUARANTEE if you took a polyp from each place and mounted them near each other they'd grow together...

If you don't know what rocks I'm referring to, here's an example...

notice how each rock has a couple of each glued down to them? Well, I'm positive that both vendors in question each received a rock with a couple polyps of the exact same morph glued to them.

Mystery Solved :xd:
