Kryptonite (neon green) Candycane

[CookieJar]

This is one of the 1st corals I got which makes it ~2 years old. As with most candycanes' it's very hardy, has survived a semi-tank crash (overheat) and has still done well. It grows at a slow to medium rate but I have 2 frags of it mounted onto disks. The color is a very bright green and is one of the strongest flourescent corals I've seen. It does fine with low/ medium light and low/ medium flow. I can bring to the Oct. meeeting and basic DBTC rules apply.

I would like a frag if possible 8)..

I would like a frag, if still available

 

[CookieJar]

2 frags are spoken for- Elite & OakRaid. I'll bring at the next BAR meeting.

 

[Elite]

Cool see u at the meeting.. Thanks!

 

[Elite]

Sorry I should have updated this thread when I received the frag. Not sure when I received this but the polyps are getting much bigger now..

Here is a pic showing it eats mysis shrimp 8) ..

nice pic phong

 

[CookieJar]

Glad to see it's growing for you. It's my slowest growing Candycane, which complies with the general rule, "the prettier the coral, the slower the growth" ;D

 

[Roc]

Phong, what does this candy cane look like compared to the one you got from me (asked since both Cookiejar and I called them the same thing) but mine goes super fast for me, and he said his was a slow grower

 

[Elite]

His is much greener. His is actually a Krytonite. Yours is not. Your is a light green. It's only green under heavy actinic. Under 14K bulb, it's just a light green.

 

[Roc]

This is his in your tank

And this is the one I gave you in your tank

Are those under the same light

 

[Elite]

Yup.. 14K 150WMH..

looks like way more red in the pic of the frag I gave you (the sand being the tip off)

 

[Elite]

I had algae issue when I took that pic.. Look at the other pic. You will see the samething on the sand bed..

I don't see any red but then I'm colorblind ..

 

[Elite]

Does anyone want to take over my piece? My tank is in really bad shape. I want to get these out of here.

 

[bookfish]

You could give them to us at Green Marine. I'd be pleased to have the store be the first LFS to participate in DBTC.

 

[Elite]

Hi Jim, I would love to give it to you but you are pretty far from me. I'm in SJ and I don't go up there often.

If you still have it, I could take yours off your hands.

Wanna start a tank thread and give us some info on your tank??
