Something about a long tentacle plate.....

[saltyphish]

One of the most facinating corals to watch eat is a plate. Make it a long tentacle plate and the show gets better watching the food getting passed around from tentacle to tentacle then into their mouth. Promise to post a video of mine when I get time.

I agree, but your plate is way better looking than mine!!! What great colors.

I have another short tentacle bright green plate that us plain and boring until it eats neat how even the short tentacle plates pass the food up to the opening mouth.

I love Heliofungia. They do not have the bright colors or patterns of a fungia or cycloseris. They make up for it being more dramatic with the tentacle movement. Short tentacle plates move food the same to the mouth. It just takes them longer.
