Daily stages of my Devils Hand-

I got this Devils Hand off a fellow reefer
It was about 0.75cm.
I then glued it to a slightly larger piece of rock.
NOw it's Very large- at least 6 inches across. Fast grower- about 9 months.
And you can certainly see why the call it a 'Hand'
Those vertical finger looking structures are NOT rock- it's the way the coral grows! - LIke figers from a hand!

I'd love to see yours also! Post'em please

Early morning, lights off, taken with the flash on my Iphone
As you can see, all polyps retracted



A little later, blue LED's only
Some polyps starting out



Later still, white and blue LED's on
Just about full polyp extension

 

THAT THINGS LOOKS DISEASED.......SEND IT TO ME NOW! I'll fix it!

 

It really is a much more attractive coral than people give it credit for.

Your's looks very much like a hand.

Thank you for sharing, nice piece.

 

Funny Daniel! I could frag a hunk

Thanks Cheryl,
It amazed me in the shape it grows in!

 

I completely agree. I like. How long did it take you to get this kind of growth?

 

It grew from less than a centimeter small frag, to now over about 7 inched across in about 9 months.
Eating only whats in the water column, and I have crystal clear water too!

 

I really like this piece. With this new build, I am going to go with fairly hardy stuff such as your devil's hand. Great looking corals with a lot less stress. Once again, I really like this piece.

 

Thanks again. The DH seems to be very hardy as most softies are.
