impur Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 This is the Rhizo i won from Roe's. Its doing really good, it LOVES to be fed. Eats anything. The tentacles get about 6" after it eats. I'd like to try and find a few of the other colors out there. This photo was taken by Nyles These were by me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impur Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Updated pic of my Rhizo. Its doing really good. I'm hoping with more feedings it will produce a baby someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 It's looking really good, you must be taking excellent care of it. Has it grown much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrgreenthumb Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Wow have never seen anything like that. The only information I could find is that it is really really expensive and that it can eat fish. not much out there on Rhizotrochus typus. I have a hard time with the $500 plus price tag, given that it looks so similar to a condy. Maybe you can give me some insight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 It really hasn't grown much. When i was having my tank problems it recessed a little, but as you can see its completely filled out now. It really expands at night. mrgreenthumb - I didn't know anything about them either. Then i ordered some duncans from Roe's Marine world and it entered me in a drawing, which is won!!!! I never win anything! It is non-photosyntheic coral. I feed it silversides and krill plus it gets whatever is floating by. I hand feed it about twice a week. It has very sticky tentacles that do sting nearby corals. At night the tentacles extend about 8 inches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
