I've seen a couple discussions where the E-coralz/Cquarium guy has been pretty hatey when somebody has challenged him on his livestock and business practices. I personally have seen one piece from him and it did not look a lot like what his picture of it did. His pictures were MUCH more colorful than in real life.

I have dealt with cquarium MANY times and everything is exactly like he pictures. That brain coral I recieved is EVEN better than the pic. I'll post a pic of it soon. The one thing is, he doesn't respond quickly enough when a problem arises.

Rothie · #**105** 07/19/2006, 10:13 AM

Actually,he doesn't respond at all once he has the money.

R33f3r · #**106** 07/19/2006, 12:43 PM

He has for me, but he isn't nice, let's just put it that way w/o any profanities

He owed me 150.00 worth of livestock and it took me awhile to get it. Phishybusiness.com is better anyways

Here's my brain coral, not impressive compaired to the beauties above but my favorite coral in my tank none-the-less.

jenghes · #**109** 07/26/2006, 07:31 AM

my open brain and scolymia, the brain has grown substantially in 6 months i'd say 25% bigger. It is not as nice as some of the others, but i dig them. the edge of the brain is really starting to turn a nice orange color, you really can't tell in the pics.

I would like to see some fish store rescue brains and how they turned out..

(pretends not to have purchased a half dead brain from the fish store in order to rescue it at a really damn good price and is holding his fingers crossed hoping he will get a little encouragment from our pictures)

If you take good care of a rescued brain does it have the ability to regrow into places that have totaly died or will it end up growing new skeletal areas ?

Half this brain is complete dead not white but actualy has coraline and looks more like live rock now...Some of the other parts are whiteish and some red skeletal sections...
I would like to trim the dead with no possibility of correction off from the coral.. It does look to be still doing fine int he areas that aren't dead I think that it might all be newer growth though.

also this brain has 2 mouths.. do they all ?

donald altman · #**119** 08/15/2006, 12:21 PM

here are the links to two of my rescued brain pictures

http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/irrele...cd.jpg&.src=ph

I wish I knew how to post the actual pictures here.. I never can seem to get it right.. LOL

If you look at the first picture you can see the skeleton that looks like liverock towards the back of the brain.. on the second picture you can see red skeletal area showing the brain has redish tones and neon green... the light is funny becuase it was out of a tank with double actinic bulbs only so I am slowing adjusting them to more light as not to further damage the brain.

HELP !!!

Muligan · #**120** 08/20/2006, 05:47 PM

here are some I got today.

Do they do better on the sand or does it mater if they are on the rock work?

It's a great piece but my clown thinks it's a water bed so it isn't inflated 24/7.
