rocko918 April 10, 2005 Share April 10, 2005 I dont know anything about the coral but have read a ton of terrible experiences with Aquacon. Do a search for "aquacon" on reef cental and you will find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geofloors April 11, 2005 Share April 11, 2005 That is a type of Tunicate. Almost impossible to keep alive long term. I've seen many people have them for a month or two before it starved to death. Roozens gets these from time to time. I have also read many negatives things about Aquacon. George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribbean Jake April 13, 2005 Share April 13, 2005 Not a reef safe livestock, not because they eat other corasl but because they are hard to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmeyer April 13, 2005 Share April 13, 2005 This is also called a lollipop coral. Wetwebmedia strongly advises against these (see http://www.wetwebmedia.com/seasquirtfaqs.htm). In looking over all of their info it seems that these tunicates live off an unknown type of bacteria that is lacking in our tanks. If you still want to get one, I saw one the other day at Totally Fish on Georgia Ave. I didn't get it based on what I've read, but admit that they look very cool. Sorry, I don't remember how much they were asking for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
