brains are definatly my fav lps and so easy to keep if you have no angels or butterflies to pick on them.once you get them trained to eat they have them tentacles out all the time looking for a free meal.i found mine likes minced foods not chunky he spits out chunky clam but if i give him the same piece minced no prob.i love the ones you guys posted lets keepem comming

Wow! Justin, that Trachy rocks! Reminds me of one I didn't have the money to buy, when I first started in the Reef Hobby.
Do you have some Pink Floyd music to go with that psychedelic wonder??! LOL

OMG, I was just browsing through all these coral threads trying to find what I would like to buy. I am still extremely new to corals. I thought these colors looked really cool but still don't know the difference between the brain, scoly, acan. I saw some post above mentioned tentacles which I didn't know they had. So I did a search for scoly and found some videos of them extending the tentacles to eat and it blew my mind. I thought they were hard like rocks. I have got to get one of these they are awesome.

Now question time. Do those colors look the same under normal lights and just pop more under the blues? I want to go looking for these at my LFS but they will probably have white lights on.

I will also try and find the difference between the other brains. Great thread and awesome pictures.
