jtsam Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 i was just wondering if anyone has pictures of their corals with the sweeper tentacles extended...if so, lets see em!!! Link to comment
yOyOYoo Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 im curious to see this as well. Im looking to get a frag of frogspawn soon and im wondering how far I need to place it away from other corals if I don't want any stinging to go on. Link to comment

Flood Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 here is the sweepers on my two torch corals. they only sweep at night and there seems to be only two tentacles per coral. Link to comment
matt the fiddler Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/showthread...&threadid=30951 thread on frogspawn sweepers ...as well as being the only good pic i have taken of my tank. [to prove it go look at the other 200 of mine that sux] Link to comment
MarLooney Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 matt... nice pic and cool shrooms. i likes... =D Link to comment
matt the fiddler Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 the frog has since been banished to a friends tank [for some halides] a 25 is too small to have 9" reserved for a coral that stings like that.. i LOVE frogspawns. but just not practical when i get my 55- i might thing of getting one again... i am going the sps direction though Link to comment
xcajx Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 That is a great photo. Not only good quality, but educational. It should be stickied somewhere with a ruler to show what lengths the stingers can reach. Link to comment
corriewf Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 By the way flood this might be just my tired eyes playing tricks on me ,but that shot of torch just looks like the toorch taking a crap. Link to comment
AReeferIsExpensive Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 In flood's pic i think those are feeding tentacles, not stinging. My brain used to swing them around all the time Link to comment
matt the fiddler Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 my froggie was definatly trying to fry everything in the tank... Link to comment
corriewf Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 No it wasnt ...It just wanted to play tag! Your it shrooms! Link to comment
matt the fiddler Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 lol with no tag backs... shrooms say... "i met a possum" "my blood hurst" Link to comment
EnderG60 Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 my old hammer from my 58g..took out a bunch of shrooms Link to comment
burrito Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 hmm im soon going to buy a hammer or frog, i only have zoos in my tank as of now. if the frog were to sting my zoos what would happen to them? Link to comment
AReeferIsExpensive Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 well...the tentacles basically come out at night which is when zoos are closed. Not sure how harsh a frog sting is to know it if would do any damage to a closed polyp~ Im guessing not much, but i could be wrong Link to comment
kris_willard Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Let it sting u and find out! thhat would be a good way to judge! Link to comment
AReeferIsExpensive Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Are there any corals that you cant touch b/c the sting is so harsh?? Link to comment
kris_willard Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Don't really want to find out but if someone is willing to Guinea pig... Link to comment
myelin Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 It tingles if you brush up against it. I got "stung" by my bubble once while doing maintenance. I now wear some gloves that go up to my elbows (well most of the time). Link to comment
