I believe this coral to be a type of Scleronephthya rather than the Carnation coral, Dendronephthya.

Have to get me one of those!
The only thing with the pink tree coral is I need to feed it live phytoplankton every other day. I guess it's not that big of a deal until I go on vacation.

Where did you get it? I tried looking it up here on SWF, but couldn't find it. Was that the right name?

It's from the family nephtheidae. Common names Tree, Caulifower and Carnation.
The ones on SWF are Dendronephthya (carnation).

aren't you glad I gave you that hex to see if you would like SW stuff? Hehehehe... looking good vicegrips, and I don't know what that pink thing is for sure but I can't hardly wait to see what it looks like when I get a frag from you! I'm glad you did the diary thing here, it will be great to go back a year or two from now to see how it all progresses along.

Nice tank. I have a question for you how much additivies do you add to your tank. What kind of additivies do you add into your tank because I also have 75 gallon tank and I'm having difficult keeping stable the cal. level. Any suggestion on how to keep stable. I'm still in process of learning how to take care of simple reef tank.
Thanx

Hey GhettoTang,
The only thing I add is a cap full of B-Ionic two part calcium buffer.Regular water changes with a good reef salt really helps too. Imo a 5 gallon water change every other week will stablize a small reef as good if not better then any additivies.
Hope this helps,

Thanx for your help. I read to other people forum that this cause to increasing phosphates and causing hair algae. Is there any other additivies I need to add to the tank to keep the coral healty.

I'm not sure what you mean is causing increased phosphate and hair algae. My phosphate is 0 and no hair algae. I think the water changes would be your best bet and not add anything.
