I have 3 extra colonies of Green Star Polyps that have branched or been fragged from my huge mother colony, and they deserve new homes. Please forgive the pics, I only have my iPhone to work with!
Located in Chattanooga, TN. Willing to meet locally, and also willing to ship via FedEx. Should...
Hi all. My gsp has been closed for a week and a half. I got it 3weeks ago and as soon as he went into tank all polyps extended and stayed like that for a few days. Then they retracted and haven't come back out. Some mornings I can see the whites of the polyps peeking through but when I get home...
Hi everyone. I have a new tank that went through rough cycling. I added 2 clown fishes and few corals. After a couple of weeks I got Diatoms in my tank. Than I picked up some cleaning crew and I totally killed the white color in my light. I have never had red or green on cause the tank is new...

You're going to have to bare with me... This is my first ever fish tank and I will be making all the mistakes!
The story starts after seeing my brother in law's planted fish tank, and after lockdown started I had been working from home (and will be doing...
I have a rock of gsp that curls outward when my light comes on. it is in medium flow area and bottom of my Nuvo 10. You think it's getting too much light?
So I am think of setting up a tank filled with all the coral that people class as invasive, things like gsp, Xenia and mushrooms. The sort of things that I don't want in my main reef tank. I currently have a cycled fluval 13.5 with a pair of clownfish and live rock, bare bottom. Been cycled a...
Hi so I am having an issue that I never thought I would say, but something is causing my gsp to stay closed and I don't understand what.
The gsp had been in my tank for about a week and has been happily open until the last 2 days when it hasn't opened. It is in a medium flow medium light spot...
Can anyone help me figure out what this thing in my green star polyps is? I just noticed it yesterday when a hermit crawled up in the gsp and seemed interested in it.
I have a question that keeps nagging me. I'm considering encouraging one or more of my corals to grow on the back glass and overflow, but I'm decidedly undecided. I want your opinions and experience. I may not follow your advice, but I might, maybe.
The tank is not tall and one of my...
Hey guys, i had a tank crash last week because of a failed return pump. Whole tank went cloudy and i lost some corals, fish and inverts. The one coral that didnt make it was my whole colony of anthelia. 8x6 inch colony disintegrated into a smelly mush on the 3rd day of the crash. I only got it...
Hi guys,
I am about to get my first soft coral and have decided i want to have GSP covering the back of my tank.
For you folks this is probably a ridiculous question but whats the best way to get it to grow on the back? Do i sit the frag plug on a piece of rock toughing the back of the glass...
I am trying to think of ways I might better control the growth of my GSP as I would rather not have to take apart rock work to trim back.
It is basically what's preventing me from aquascaping.
Also trying to think of ways to handle it growing down off the rocks and onto the bottom of my bare...
Today i noticed my gsp frag looked a little different (lights are off and gsp was closed up at the time the picture was taken). There seems to be some red stuff growing over/on the gsp frag, and little red strings are hanging off it. Is this a fungus? Is this normal? Not sure what to make of it...
Like many new reefers I bought an aggressive coral that got out of control. In my case it was a branching form of GSP. I still love the look but it spread too far. I fragged some and I'm going to try to "carpet" the back wall of the tank. But that left me with a lot of leftover.
I spent about...
I got a small piece of gsp for free when I bought a clownfish, and it is not attached to anything. I put it in a bowl-shaped rock so it would attach, but so far it hasn't done anything but blow around. Is there a way I can attach the gsp chunk without hurting the coral?
I bought this coral about a month ago, and I was told it was green star polyps, but now I'm not so sure. Can someone give me a definite answer? Thanks!
Hello guys, how is it going? I’ve added this GSP coral to my tank 2 weeks ago, and I’m very happy with it. I love how it glows under the blue light. And I’m wondering what should I add next? I’m afraid of zoas, because they are toxic, and I’m not sure about pulsing xenias because they don’t glow...
Hello guys! So I’ve just added my first coral to my 30 gallon tank. It’s a GSP, Green star polyp. I did a 5 minutes dip Reef Primer shot, then remove it from the frag base and added it to the thank. But I’m worried, it’s all contracted and I’m afraid I’m might have killed it. Also I think I see...
