blue sympodium

[skabooya]

Ive read these are easy to care for and some say its difficult. Some say they grow fast, some slow, high flow, low flow, etc Completing contradicting.

Ive also read its similar to blue cespitularia in care in that its tempermental. And care in the long term is difficult.

Does anyone have any experience with this coral? Im looking at buying one for my tank but Im not gonna get one if its just gonna die.

My tank is a 28gal long macro algae tank. 4x24T5HO 2x ATI aquablue special, 2x aquablue plus.

I got some from jl this week, and they look awesome. there is mixed review online about these little guys, but I guess you wouldn't know until you try one. I have it in the wife's bio 29 with aussie scolly, acan lord, acan and some sps. I will see how it goes and report back.

thanks for the info. Maybe next time they go up for sale I will pick one up.
Anyone else with info?
I wonder if they would do well in a macro tank as those tanks get a bit "dirty" which softies tend to like.

How tall do they get? How fast do they spread? I read they double in size in a month but im not sure how accurate that is.

I've got some in a low flow area of my tank at the bottom and under a 250w metal halide and 2 T5's.

Wow, they look great! And they would probably do well in my softies tank, too!

Lenny, those pics or video does not do the coral justice! I love mine.

Those pictures look unreal to me!
I'm so jealous of you and Rob for actually having those in your tanks.
Thanks for sharing. Dawn.
