reef flowers?

[cocoboy821]

hey yall
i had some "flowers" in my tank for awhile, then learned they were majano anemones. we got rid of em and everything, but my mom fell in love with how "pretty" they were.
her birthday is in june, and i was wonderin if there were any corals that look like flowers that could be a suprise for her?

green star polyps, they are like green flowers. feather dusters sort of look like flowers

tube anemones.... this is a bad pic, it moved to the back of my tank. It has a neon green center. they come in many different colors.

How old is your tank?
How big is the tank?
What are your water parameters?
What kind of lighting do you have?
What filtration/circulation do you have?

this will definatly let people know what your tank is capable of housing.

I will also add:
What livestock do you have?

 

[reefforbrains]

Goniopora are nice, but some are very hard to keep.
Pagota cups are also nice and flowery. also much easier to keep.

 

[sigmachris]

Yellow Polyps are easy to keep.

Ok, really, I don't suggest ANYTHING until we know what lights he even has.
