I have bad news My order from Premium Aquatics was cancelled. Unfortunately, that scolymia wasn't looking too good so they decided not to ship it. So now I am on the hunt for another one. Let me know if anyone sees one!

Sadly, no longer mine since the tank downgrade (had to sell all the big corals), but here's a cool one with two babies sprouting off the back end :



Peace,

After 10+ years of reefkeeping, I finally got a scolymia. Just have a question. 1st of all, when I put it in the tank, I seemed to have tore a bit of its flesh due to the sharp skeleton. How fast does the wound heal back? Also, where is the best place to put these guys? Do they like high light? Thanks!

Once in awhile I get one in that has a little wound like that. They seem to heal pretty fast. I have some about 10-12" away from 400 watt halides, and some at the bottom of the sand bed of my 300 under halides. I'd say moderate or better lighting, and medium flow.

Can I ask you guys a question?
I saw a cynarina in a shop recently and almost bought it...but it's a metallic hot pink...almost see-through.I was afraid it was just a red that lost it's color.What do you think?It's 50$

Bergzy's first pic is a cynarina, I'm pretty sure.

I have had several reds come in and most start off a washed out reddish brown, then color up to more of a nice reddish. A "metallic hot pink...almost see-through" I would have to think is stressed. As long as the coral seems healthy otherwise (skeleton structure isn't broken, flesh looks nice and puffy), I'd give it a shot. May color up into a real nice red if its that pink. Might even get the lfs to come down a little if you talk about the stress.

Thanks zeppelin...that's what I was thinking.It was stressed or had lost some of it's zoo'.The flesh was very puffy and it's quite beautiful.
I once tried to revive a see through all pink frogspawn,it did'nt make it.My lights may have been a bit too much for it.It seems to me that some LPS really don't do well under my 250 MH's.I have an alveopora straight under them that is doing awesome and loving it.I guess when it comes to LPS corals they do not have equal requirements as it is with most sps and softies.
