The Xenia is an old-school variety that I haven't seen in a while. I had some in my 75 20 years ago. It grows from a single thick stalk and makes an awesome looking large pulsating head. They are not as invasive at other varieties and are easy to control in the tank. They don't ship well, so I hope it makes it ok. I know most people laugh at Xenia, but this is one of my favorite corals in the display. This is a close-up of one of my old ones in my 75. I wish I had a video of them pulsing.Pics or it didn't happen!

Since you asked, there are these pics from the website. A lot of these corals are in MikeC's Softy Tank and this is the same place that he got some of his corals. His tank has become my inspiration tank, even though it is not what the tank started out to be five years ago. Has it been that long? LOL!
Frogspawn
Giant Bali Xenia
Green Pipe Organ
Purple Candelabra Gorgonian
Red Mushroom
Red Sponge
Tank Raised Red Goniopora
Tonga Yellow Toadstool - I am hoping the color is similar to the pic.
Tracy Morgan Gorgonian - these get huge and are thick and very frilly.
There will also be a freebie or two that I don't know what they will be. Sorry for the long post. Retired people tend to be long-winded. ;Happy
When my grows out a bit more, I would love to give you a piece! Mine is different looking than most pics I see, but that could just be my lighting.I live Xenia and gsp! I'm looking for a larger frag of gsp for the Miracle.
I guess I really should start posting my tank updates in my own thread - if I can find it. It is nice to keep this thread going with some banter though. We can't let it die now.
I’m always in for some spam lol.I can feel a game of "spam the retired person until he caves in and actually does it" coming on!
good choice i promise one rainy day going to read this book start to finish but undercover with no repliesI am brand new to saltwater. My son got an 8 gallon bio cube. I know this is too small, but I promised I'd try. I have 1 piece of dead coral for decor and that's it. We hope to have 2 tiny fish and maybe 2 shrimp. We also like hermit crabs. What equipment, substrate would you guys suggest? I'd like to use easy (forgiving) live macro algae to help balance this tank. Please be kind with responses. I have been called names elsewhere and was referred here to learn.
