| "Capnella is probably my
favorite of the commonly acquired 'softie' category. I've had the specimen
in image 1 for about two years. It has grown to nearly twice its original
size since I placed it in it's current location, very near the bottom
of the tank, in moderate current. When I had it higher (I was told these
guys liked a lot of light), it stayed tightly contracted most of the time.
Now it has another problem: My Sohal Tang. For some reason, that fish
simply LOVES to nip at the tips of this coral. I don't think it's actually
being eaten as I never see any real damage to the piece but quite naturally
it again stays contracted during most of the day. Opens at night while
irritant fish is asleep. |
