What is your biggest coral?

[fishoholic]

I got an amazing deal on this extremely large pipe coral (thank-you Wayne aka fencer) and it got me thinking/wondering what everyones biggest coral in their tank is.

My new pipe coral is by far the biggest coral in my tank and it is litterally about the size of a football.

Currently, gotta be my closed brain, I've had it for over 6 years and grew it from a baby. For an idea on size I would say it's currently pretty close to the size of an actual human brain. And yes my clams are that big


I did however have some large SPS corals in my previous tank

Biggest was the blue formosa on the right which when I sold it wouldn't even come close to fitting in a 5 gallon pale. It had to be broken into 3 pieces to fit in three pails.

Currently my largest coral is this redish orange encrusting monti....its got about an 8" diameter




previous to that was this frogspawn that was about the size of a human head.

Both the biggest and the oldest, my bubble is 16+yrs old and the skeleten measures in at 12-14" fully expanded is 24"+ If I turn off the pumps the sweeper tenticles can reach just about any spot in the tank (72"x36")

WOW that's crazy

In terms of surface area my 10x10" sea fan is the largest at present. In a previous tank though I had a pink rimmed cap that took up the better part of half of the bottom of the tank. 36x18x24" I know I know, this post is useless without pictures.

I have 3 large corals in my 225g: a bubble coral that was about 12" across when inflated, until I recently fragged a large piece for a fellow Canreefer. A very large Pipe Organ that is 12" across and 10" high. And a Toadstool that is 9" across and 7" high. I can't take the credit for growing these though as I got all three of them from Marie.










And in the 90g I have a Torch Coral that is 8" across and 5" high. (also from Marie). And a Monti Cap that is 11" long and 9" across.

I've had this one a few years, it's about 16" across now.

I have many large colonies of SPS but I've always had a soft spot for this hammer which is about 14" across.
