for the life of me with this crappy camera I'm using (promise I'll try to get a better shot with hubbys super camera) I keep having to use the flash on stuff that isn't like, right next to the glass
Here's the best I could do for now of my yellow- its got a baby on its side sort of. It's like a slit that a little thing like a barnacle comes out and swipes the water from. Really weird!

hey guys are you having issues with flow? mine is so fleshy that too much flow and flows all different directions, I had to take mine down from the rocks and put it on the bottom for now, even on the bottom I had to move it around a little.

Yep i had to put mine at the bottom off to the side were there is almost no flow. I seems to love it there, it is open fully all the time.

most of my duncans are in medium to high flow. except this damn yellow piece that has not opened yet! and some new ORA frags that are recovering after the dremel!

I see that medium flow is good for growth, but does lighting matter that much? And how do oyu go about feeding them, best to spot feed them, and with what food?

First pic is a two week old ducans with agressive feeding (2-3 times a day HUFA brine shrimp).
Second pic is two week old ducans with daily feedings. Pictures aren't really that good to tell the difference in size, but the first pic's size is almost the size of a half dollar. With signs of three babies, two near the crown of the head and one on the stem. The ducans in the second pic are about the size of a nickle with no signs of any babies forming. |

I was told that they are cold water corals, what temps do you keep them at?

My yellow isn't holding it's color. The center and the base of the tentacles are starting to show pink/purple. Otherwise it seems very healthy.

Mine always had a slight lavender color by the mouths to but no color on the tentacles. thats to bad if yours morphs to one of the bi-color styles.

How are everyones yellow Duncans doing? Mine has darkened considerably and looks nothing like it did when I got it. It's the least attractive of the the 4 Duncan morphs I have although it's still an amazing animal and is reproducing nicely but at a much slower rate than my others. There's no way I could call this a "yellow" morph anymore - not even close. The babies start out very light colored similar to the way the original polyp looked when I got it, but that's pretty typical of all my Duncans.

My Yellow frag is getting a little darker, but the center is still pretty pale. I think pale is a better description for these guys than yellow. It's still a cool color morph and it's growing well for me.

Here is mine, it's so fleshy that I have trouble find it a spot so I gave up and let it be, it's growing so fast I have 5 babies. Next to it it's my ORA one but my Roes it's HUGE, the color is hard to appreciate with the camera. Pretty happy with both.

My yellow have a slight bit of lavender to its mouth region still but that has not changed.
they have just about doubled in size like other were saying. I moved all but my lavender one down to the bottom of the tank they seem happier. my lavender one is high up in the tank and at this point has become a home for my clown lol. the polyps must measure 2.5 inches across its huge!!
