@Sallstrom , i found a food, they really like. The rainbow color one is almost 12 inches. The rest are expanding more. The purple are two different ones.These picture do no justice

I hope I can pick your brain on those feedings. I'm not really ready to do that large changes yet, but I hope to do a new setup for NPS within a couple of month.

Keep up the great work!

They stay open 90%, i talk to head diver, about purple ones. The polyps suppose to look like spikes. And its looking that way. Never seen dendro that has polyps for spikes, different.
On orange ones getting still 50% polyps expansion. Going to check water perimeters in 7 hours. But all corals trying to reach for the stars.

Remember everyone, i used Hiatt products, for filtration. Working perfect. Just started like 2 months ago using it. Blessing

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

Before the net. There was books. Books like this

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

There an article here R2R, someone made cement cave for dendronephthya corals, that's one idea to think about . Nice article

Had to sneak up on them. I reconnected wet/dry at 5am. Water got colder. I can see the effect it has on them. They were bigger, before reconnect filter.

Sorry not best photos

The purple spiky corals, doing 110% the other 90%, their stalk is plump. Good sign.
The purple one that wasn't doing well, lot better.

Stay tune

Hey @Joemama I think I saw you're in southern California. Reef lounge has some carnations. Some looked better than other but just wanted to give you a heads up.
