Let's see your Cirrhipathes spiralis

[Tank Girl]

They are just too cool, I think they are becoming my favorite coral for now:bigsmile: I got my Cirrhipathes a few months ago from Leigh Anne's "Aquariums" and it was doing great. Share your tips on keeping and feeding them:bigsmile:

Here is a pic of mine. It just came in on the last coral shipment. The pic isn't near the quality of yours. However it is a bluish base with yellow polyps. I love it and think I will keep it for the seahorse tank!

Those are really cool. I've heard they are hard to care for. What has been your experience.

Pretty cool. You should try to feed more, so it will demonstrate stronger feeding response. Mix of frozen rotifers, prawn eggs and FM foods worked very well for me.

No, so far it were pretty easy. I feed my tank 5-6 times a day, so it gets enough food to stay open 24hr a day.

5-6 times a day? Wow!

I just ordered my new t3i yesterday. Pretty excited. What 100mm macro are you using?
