Yup, it would take time and it is a serious undertaking to get corals to spawn.

Check this out, you'll love it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PDx...ature=youtu.be they get corals to spawn intentionally.

I'm not trying to get the corals to spawn. I'm looking at how they change their gene expression with an artificial lunar cycle and to see if I could use a similar set up with an open set up in the field.

So, my part is just a very small piece of the puzzle.

Bump!

My experimental tank is ready to rock and roll! I'm running a few types of experiments and I'm looking for decent sized frags/mini colonies or full colonies of:

SPS:
Acropora millepora
Plating Montipora's

Echinoderms:
Brittle stars
Sea cucumbers

Really want to get some of those little brittle stars that love to hitchhike. If anyone has some, and feel they could get me some. That would be killer.

I accept donations of course But I'm willing to pay if you rather walk away with some money to replace the coral I have taken from your tank.

I can give you a large black brittle star.
