dmanshep Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 Can someone give me an idea what this is? My buddy put it in his tank and it grew 200%.. We are curious what it is and how to care for it.. It was sold as a plate coral, but doesn't look like any of the pics were finding. Link to comment
Crakeur Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 looks like it might be a fungia of some sort and a bloated one at that. Link to comment
Satchmo Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 See if you can get a pic with the tentacles retracted. It looks very fleshy for a plate. Link to comment
sjpresley Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 It's a Heliofungia sp., they have similar needs to Fungia sp. (moderate/low flow, high light, set on substrate, occasional feeding) however they are a little more sensitive to being stung by other corals and a little more demanding overall. Link to comment
Satchmo Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 I thought heliofungiids have much longer tentacles... Link to comment
