Anthelias are referred to as clove polyps too.

They were but weren't opened up. I may have to see if I can find any of that around here.

 

[ReefKeeper]

let me know if you cant find any Piggy, if you pay shipping i will send you some, and it will be worth the price of shipping.

I wish I could trade with you guys too, I don't hang at the Ontario site much, they were the ones who were high and mighty with me

 

[Melonbob]

Clove polyps, I have seen those before, but they did not ever look like those. The ones you have are SO MUCH PRETTIER

[reeffreak]

Clavularias are considered clove polyps.Anthelias are anthelias....I just wanna argue with Biff.

 

[Bifferwine]

Anthelias are also called clove polyps.

Clove Polyp, <I>Anthelia</i> sp.

 

[reeffreak]

Oh yeah........Clove/Glove Polyp (Clavularia sp.)

 

[Bifferwine]

So what you're saying is...we're both right?

 

[reeffreak]

I guess so....I call it a draw.

Thats why we need to use scientific names more often instead of nicknames/common names.

 

[Doc]

some of us just aren't smart enough to remember them all

The blue kind is the coolest of all. I had a problem with it growing fast. I had three rocks that were baseball size covered with it in six months. Everywhere a single piece lands there will be ten in a week or two. I got rid of all but a snail shell of it.

The first coral I ever bought was a blue anthelia.But then I had a cyano outbeak and used some chemi-clean.Well the chemi-clean cleaned out my anthelia along with the cyano.

The first coral I ever bought was a kenya tree. One of my biggest tank mistakes, ever, IMO. :D

That was my 2nd.And I'm still trying to kill the damn thangs.

 

[Bifferwine]

Yep. Me too. Kenya trees and green star polyps -- worst livestock decisions ever for my tank.

 

[yote]

I never had any luck with GSPs,so I cant say much about them.

 

[Bifferwine]

Mine are TAKING OVER. And unfortunately, they are on a rock that's at the bottom of my rock pile, supporting everything else above it. On the same rock, I have a colony of red zoas, two ricordeas and a colony of lord of the rings zoas. The GSP are starting to cover all the other corals on the rock. I don't know what to do about it!
