I got it from mitchreef as part of a package of all 4. Can't say how much I paid, but he hooked me up big time.

Rare for me and I haven't seen the desalwii, borealis and valida in too many tanks, but I'm new to sps so what do I know. I could have many more rare corals if I had $400 to blow on rare LPS

How long have you had them? Do you spot feed?

Those are dendronepthia. Very cool corals but they don't do well in captivity due to a need for a constant food source which would pollute most of our tanks......


Lets see, this tank was taken down, geez, three years ago........yes they are nophotosynthetic, I bought them as Carnation as a very stupid inexperience reefer who didn't know better. I was fortunate enough to keep them healthy for about 6 months, but at the expense of yes a very dirty tank. They were beautiful but a major pain in the ****. They were attached to a giant oyster that would constantly move and the colony would fall at least every other day.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
