coral reef Posted June 27, 2004 Author Share Posted June 27, 2004 i have also in the past week upgraded my lighting to a 250w ice cap ballast and a 20,000k radium bulb which looks much better in person than it does in these pics (here are some of my prized zoos that will follow me to my grave LOL) Link to comment
coral reef Posted June 27, 2004 Author Share Posted June 27, 2004 one last one for now thanks for lookin Link to comment
ReeferMonkey Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I'm no expert, but I think that's a Pocillopora or maybe maybe a Stylophora rather than a Bird's Nest (Seriatopora). Anyone concur with me on this? Link to comment
coral reef Posted June 28, 2004 Author Share Posted June 28, 2004 yes you are right but that seems to be the common name people give this coral ,it is a pociliapora Link to comment
ReeferMonkey Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Also known as Cauliflower Coral, Brush Coral, Cluster Coral Really scientific names are the way to go. Too much confusion over common names. BTW, the color on the Pocillopora under actinics is really nice. Link to comment
