I had a bicolor that loves to eat that as well….also other green corals toogreen pocillopora, the only way I've found to kill it is to keep a bi-color blenny with it (apparently the polyps are delicious)
Mine left all the other SPS alone. At first I thought my emerald crab was the culprit because she was always perched on the pocillopora. Then while I was watching the tank one night the little b-hole blenny literally looked my in the eye and then took a big ol nip of polyps. Spent the next 2 hours tearing that tank apart to remove him lolI had a bicolor that loves to eat that as well….also other green corals too
I see these questions often and maybe I’m just impatient, but how fast are we talking when we say fast growing? I have encrusting, plating, and digi Monti and have seen little to no growth on otherwise healthy looking coral. On the other hand a candy cane colony has been sprouting new heads left and right. Does growth correlate to size? E.g. larger corals grow faster than their smaller counterparts
That plating coralline algae is pretty cool. I’ve never seen it available anywhere though, does anyone actually keep this in a tank?I don’t have any SPS, but Branching coralline algae looks similar and I have found it to be quite easy to keep alive:
Plating coralline algae also doesn’t seem too hard to maintain (I have never kept it, though), but it never seems to be available anywhere:
Check ebay for the coralline. A few sellers offer it pretty cheap and free shipping also.This is awesome. Wish I could find it somewhere here...although my bet says it'd be decimated by my two urchins? Hard to find Pocillopora here as well for some reason.
