Coral of the Week: Dendro / Dendrophyllia fistula

[wrasseluver]

My purple stem colony. I feed them once a month and they have been doing great for me.

i picked up some fathead dendro about 2 weeks ago!!! they are doing great! always out! always eating! and best part they are my wife's favorite!!! And the FATHEADS are huge!!! about quarter sized!!! and let me add these were taken with my pocket cam!!! LOL...the second photo is with your average frag plug to show how big the polyps are.

quick update...and i really see why these are called "fatheads" now with 5 heads!!!

Always wanted a few of these myself kinda hard to find here

I like them too. Would be great to have them under some overhangs.

It's spawning

Nope, I wish! Tissue bubbled up on the skeleton...kinda peeled up I guess and just kept turning to mush. Of those 3, I saved 1 but it is very touch and go still. It still looks nothing like the beauties in this thread.

So what happened to your one head?

Just picked up this baby at ReefaPalooza yesterday. Now I had a colony years ago but lost it and everything due to a tank crash. Can they be over fed? Recommended food and how often?
Rods food 2-3 times a week is what I was thinking.

They can be over fed and wind up with gut rot. 2-3 times a week is recommended from my experience/understanding.
