Thank you so much for the lovely new duncan coral which I was lucky enough to have won a certificate for at the frag meet. It's a great addition to my seahorse tank and really adds some colour. You guys rock.

It certainly won't lack for that in the pony tank then

They look really happy already Kelly....glad you could find something you could squeeze in there...

It's the reef that's so hard to find a place to put things

The pony tank on the other hand is almost bare, but most LPS you can't keep with ponies. These are safe though.

I keep all kinds of LPS and SPS corals with my horse, never had any issues. Also your Duncan looks kinda like a Dendro

but it looks nice and healthy either way.

Kelly spelps is correct it is a dendro. I missed you calling it a duncan. And it does look healthy.

Ah I always get those two mixed up, darn "d" names.

Either way it's a beauty. I just love the bright yellow on it.

That's cool sphelps, it makes me wonder if I am being too cautious with my ponies. What kind of LPS do you think I could get away with in there? I have frogspawn in the reef, but I thought that might be too risky. What do you think? I did throw a caulastrea in there and haven't had anything disastrous happen.

I don't really want to say what can and can't be done or say what is or isn't safe but I've kept away from Euphyllia and similar type corals because they may be a little more aggressive. I have never seen any issues from acans, open/closed brains, duncans, dendros, favias, candy cane, chalices, and all kinds of sps. The seahorse often makes contact with the corals and holds onto them but nothing every seems to bother him. I also keep a few clams as well, again no issues.
