rscovi6374 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Greetings, I have a basic tree coral that popped off three branches over a period of three or four days. After expelling the branches the coral shrunk and looks pretty sad. One branch attached itself to a rock overnight. I am going to try and add pictures. This is my first time adding pictures. Let me know if it does or doesn't work. If the pictures appear, check out the stumps on the picture of the tree coral. Pretty amazing to witness the process. The limbs seemed to pinch off the stalk, leaving these little stumps behind. Has anyone else experienced this behavior? Prior to popping off the branches the coral was very healthy and growing like a weed. Any thoughts, ideas or shared experience? Thanks, Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsoz Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Welcome to the site! Pictures look fine I have not had a tree coral before, so I cannot comment. I have had xenia split, and it looks sad for a few days before and after (birthing pains?). dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAVES Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 its perfectly normal for that coral. I have a customer that brings me 20-30 branches every month that are on little rubbles. no need to panic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
