The Softie Revolution - Soft coral, gorgonian, macro, LPS focused builds

[Pjanssen]

Nice, is it creamy white, yellow white? or tan? I'm looking for something really white.

 

I had a white sinularia (spaghetti coral) as one of my first corals. It slowly went from white to pinkish to tan to brown. It grew pretty fast and took over. Since I was not comfortable fragging it, I eventually got rid of it. Don't know what the trick is to keeping it white.

I realized I hadn't posted any softies in a bit!! Here's my yellow Fiji (it's grown a lot) and the gsp covering the overflow!

 

 

This is what I'm holding out for. Can't find one.

 

Oh I have posted before...............hell my garage is a place that pisses me of now..........to much shit in there..........

 

Me too. Spent all day yesterday taking pictures and posting it on Letgo and Craigs list. Anything that I didn't think I could get $10. or more went to good will.

If you're on Facebook, message Glenn Ritter from coral gardens aquaculture. He gets them pretty regularly and that's where I got mine from.

 

With the white leathers, typically if they're white, it means they're bleached from lack of light or whatever and once they get into a tank with decent light, they color up. At least that's my experience.

Thanks for the tip on FB. Checking now.

A night time shot of my Devils hand (I think) with my anemone crab hosting in it.

I just found this thread (wait, I'm following it ... must be old age), awesome resource Stella! It was softies and LPS that got me interested in the hobby in the first place. Shrooms mainly, which is why I always have shrooms in each of my tanks.

Thanks Mark!! I love shrooms as well. I just love all the different colors and textures they come in.

A macro of the Clove Polyp colony in my reef. Such an underrated coral in my opinion. The colors are amazing on them!

I have a love-hate relationship with cloves and xenia!

Me too! I love them but I can't get either to grow well so they frustrate the crap out of me!

Some softies for Thursday!
