I was skimming through others forums last night on these zoas. They're wild african blue zoanthids and apparantly it's not just the ones here that don't survive. All over the US most anyone who owns them has lost them and they all do the same thing, receed and disappear. I'm now down to one polyp and I have my fingers crossed it survives and that maybe I've found the right location in my tank for it now. It's open and thriving.................for now.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Default Sun coral

Tonight i am going to trade my sun coral. i am too lazy, i feel, for this coral. as it requires daily feeding, it is high maintenance. i will miss it as it is super cool looking, but it is in the interest of helping it survive and flourish. at least it is going to a friend so i can visit ha ha. either way, it is better going to someone dedicated to feeding. maybe ill have another some day. who knows.
