Daemonfly Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 LFS had a cheap shroom rock so I decided to get it to color up the new tank until I can get some better stuff. Once I got it home, & under the lights, I found the rock didn't just have shrooms . From looking around, I'm thinking it might be goniopora :| Hard to count how many tentacles it has, but I usually can count 18+. Rock surface seems to resemble a common goni "skeleton" I found while looking it up. Best pic I can get with the crappy camera (took ~10 pics X) ) http://www.daemonfly.com/images/3greef/goniopora1.jpg It's just a small colony though, probably whats left from what used to grow on the rock. Only about 6 polyps on the patch in the pic, & 4 more in a patch on the other side of the rock. Link to comment
footbag Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Yeah it looks like the whole rock used to be a goni colony as some point. Hopefully you'll have better luck with the goni then the rest of us. Link to comment
Daemonfly Posted September 3, 2004 Author Share Posted September 3, 2004 Eh, probably not At least it wasn't some big colony the LFS was passing off as an easy coral. They just sold it to me as a rock with a bunch of shrooms, didn't even see the goni, must have been retracted at the time. Link to comment
