Re: Coral of the Week- Ricordia

Sweet pics Travis!

I was wondering, has anyone had any long term success keeping these under PC's, either the Florida or Yuma?

Thanks,

Matt

Re: Coral of the Week- Ricordia

Yeah, I kept my purple (first pic) under PC's for a couple of years and it prospered and I had a colony of about 20 of them. Oranges as well. Rics don't need a ton of light IME.

Re: Coral of the Week- Ricordia

The majority of those were taken when I photographed the premium stuff for Extreme Corals. And yes, they went for a pretty penny.

Re: Coral of the Week- Ricordia

I think another good thing to talk about is how to attach ricordea shrooms.
I, thankfully, have a small tank with rock rubble that I use and let them attach on their own to pieces of rock.
What does everyone else do????

Here are some of mine...
