Lets see your Candy Cane.

[barchtruong]

I'd love to see photos of your Candy Cane Corals.
I thought Candy Cane is a pretty unique corals.
I just bought one with about 20blooms, some are splitting. It's pink with neon green on top.
I got it on a pretty good deal. $30 and it's about 4". It got some hair algae on it thou. So, I need to work on cleaning th algae.
I want to see how healthy is a healthy Candy Cane.
Mine sure is not very

, but will work on it
Thanks

I was wondering if I could have one in my set up? I have a 75 with 2 VHO and 2 150w MH. Are they hard to keep? I'm used to the softies but now expereincing others now. Do they just grow from the light? Add anything to feed? just curious guys and thank you for your input.

 

[puffer32]

Easy to keep, I would put it mid tank, feed cyclopeze, rodifers, oyter eggs, things like that.

How do you feed it and how often? Is there a liquid form of feeding it or do you place the food on it? They look cool sorry for all the questions but want more info before I decide if I want it in my tank. Thanks

 

[kzoo]

I dont feed just clean your glass.

Put the food in a bowl with some tank water, then use a turkey baster to feed your whole tank, no need to spot feed.
