    Default Just a bunch of sun corals...

    was just feeding the sun corals and marveling of how different they all are!


    my first colony -sort of compact with short tentacles


    this one is sort of interesting because it has an orange mouth but a yellow face (should have taken a picture of the orange face sun colony but forgot). Got both the orange face and the yellow face from Gabe's


    This one is kind of cool with the orange flames. I got that one from Ed


    Another one from Ed: light pink with light pink face


    I call this one the Fuzzy. Got it from Ed the same time I got the other two but this one is so shaggy you can't see the face.


    This is my only officially 'different' one. I got it as 3 polyps from Mr Cob and it's put on two tiny babies since then. Once it's bigger it's really going to stand out.

    But isn't it interesting how even all of the regular orange sun corals are totally different?

    I wish I could remember who posted about wanting more variety then 'just the orange sun corals'
    The shaggy one is really cool in person for example - still just a regular orange sun coral

    I don't think you can get any more bang for your buck than sun corals. They're hard to beat as far as color and texture goes.

    Very pretty! I got some from ED as well. They only come out in the dark, so I don't see them much. I need some moon lights - maybe I can enjoy them more.

    Alright Karen you pulled my leg. I want a FRAG!

    Beautiful! Love all the suttle variations, The pink bodied ones are really cool. Remind me of Starburst candy colors.

    LOL. I am hoarder not a fragger...

    Got a good deal on all of them though. I saw some great deals on Aussie Sun Corals at:
    Ed's, Gabe's and Reefs2u (Reefs2u was sold on them when I got there but they had wonderful prices on them during their sale)
