Rhizotrochus aka Rhizo Coral not 1, not 2 but 3

[maxalmon]

These were just added to my personal collection, sorry for the crappy photos but acrylic is impossible to capture good images and I'll post more once they are moved to my glass tank.

The first one is electric orange with pink tentacles, second one is orange with white/brown tentacle and the 3rd is purple with white tentacles.

The polyps are about 2" across and they are all eating krill.

those are really nice :) i got 3 Ryzos also :) the red ones are really cool looking.

How long have you had them? I've been feeding these guys krill about every 3rd or 4th day and that seems to keep them happy. The purple one is finally getting more colorful and my favorite, I'm also looking for a red one to round out the collection.

Those are nice corals why are they so expensive though?

[maxalmon]

Not sure why they are so expensive other than slow to reproduce and hard to find. I just moved them to a small cave in my DT....

i feed mine every night, i fed a mix of mysis and krill :)
