Hello:
I am looking for a green Finger leather coral (Sinularia). If anyone has one let me know. It really should be a smaller specimen. If anyone has one call me or post a message.
My number is 251-661-9064.
Thanks,
James

Nice xenia!
(Pronounced like "nice beaver" from Naked Gun.)

Most of mine died during Ivan-see there was an upside.

Will do. It seems that I am the only one that is not fond of it.

I would not mind getting another frag of that green Sinularia from some one. I got one from Terry before, but I fought with it to stay on a rock with a rubber band untill it started to look bad and eventuly I lost it in the tank some where.

I have fragged it about 10 times in the last year, so it is no slow grower. I will take a frag or two next time I have my hands in the tank and get it attached to some rubble. They are pretty tricky but I have had the best luck with fishing line or rubber bands but you have to put the frag in an area of very low flow. When I got this coral it was about the size of a pinky fingernail. It fit very well in a hole in a rock so I glued it in there with super glue. The first frag I made of it was a little harder to get attached so I took a small disposable food storage container and punched some holes in it and put rubble in the bottom and set it in a corner. It attached to a piece of the rubble in a week.

I had problems attaching the piece you gave me. I ended up putting it between two pieces of rubble and lightly rubber banding them together and put them in and old kalk container in the bottom of the tank. It took mine like a week and a half if not more to attach. It has since doubled in size from what i can tell.

Hey Scott... I want to try a frag of it too. Put me on the list for this rare and very popular coral!

I'll pay you for it. What lighting do you have... 175K MH?
