I've never really looked into these. Nice, kinda like sun coral right? Do you guys have a link to order from? Can't wait to see some yellow. My girlfriend likes yellow. So I might be allowed to order some.

Forthe people that have ordered from roe's. Do they send you a shipping comformation so you know what day to stay home and receive them. I just placed an order for aduncan through them and this will be my first online order for live stock. Thanks for the input.

I got these from Roe's about 2 months ago. Not the best pic, but you can see the difference in the two types.

caddisfly are you running 20,000K lights?

I had mine for a week but the coloration is nowhere close to what you have yet. Yours look very intense, great pic. What do you target feed with?

I am runing 20,000K 150 watt HQI's over this tank. These guys eat everything. I feed them formula one pellets, cyclopeeze, brine shrimp and reef roids.

Just got my purple and yellow polyps in this afternoon. I'll be pleased if they look any where near as close to caddisflys'.

Question for all you people that ordered from roe's. I received my email with tracking number a 3:30 pm this afternoon and it is now 8:30 pm and the usps site still has no record of the tracking number. Were you able to track yours through the usps web site with your tracking number or just wait around the whole day for the package to arrive?

Should be able to track it. Sometimes you might have to call them to see if the info was correct. They can do a search by last name or address (don't remember which one). Are you sure you're supposed to get it today? My tracking number didn't work until the next day. Hope it works out for you.

I've always found that USPS tracking typically goes like "You have a tracking number!" and then when you look it up the only change\update is "package is delivered!" with no inbetween like fedex or ups has =\ its pretty lame.

Why are they raising stamp prices again? ;p

My roes order got delayed to tomorrow but I will check in with pics once I get everything in and acclimated.

With a strange stroke of luck I had put my name down on an ORA duncan list months ago and was lucky enough to have my polyp ready to pick up today Fingers crossed it does well.. looking awesome so far!

Just got mine from roe's acclimated and in the tank. Can anyone tell me weather they like alot of flow or medium or very little. I have it in the front of the tank on the bottom in medium flow.

Medium flow is good. I'd leave it right there for now. They don't seem to be too picky about light or flow as long as the current isn't too intense. I'm acclimating my Roes frags now.

I acclimated mine and it is started to come out - medium height medium flow.. I want to wait for it to open until I snap a good pic. It is yellowy-white but I think after it acclimates it might color up a bit more esp if I feed it.

In the meantime here's my ORA one this morning that I picked up yesterday


With Flash:


Since then its opened up a lot more and is actually quite a nice sized polyp and its eaten a few mysis. Their mouths look tiny but their appetite says otherwise!

Well got my duncan from roe's last night and got it in the tank. It opened about half way before lights went out. Got up this morning and attached it to a rock. Now its only about an 8th open but its mouth is open almost the hole polyp size. It looks ligh a big gaping hole in the middle. Is it feeding right now or what. This is my first duncan so i am worried, becaust i have had it in the tank for18 hours and the polyp has not fully opened yet. How long does it take for them to get used to the tank. Thanks!

I bought 6 polyps of the one one the right. I now have 10 with more babies. It grows extremely fast. Daily feedings are helping out a ton.
