FS: Fathead Dendros (Orange and Pink)

[Tangwich]

6+ years of growing these and spot feeding them mysis and brine shrimp every day. Time to let go of a few of them.

FYI I have videos of my dendros spawning in my tank.

First frag is an orange dendro 5 heads - SOLD
Second frag is a pink dendro 4 heads - SOLD
Third frag is a pink dendro mini colony 7 heads - SOLD

Still have frags of...
photosynthetic corky gorgonian $30
Long polyp toadstool (white) $30

Pickup Pasadena or can meet up in surrounding cities. No shipping.

Great looking Dendros! A bit off tangent, but what snails are the baby ones on the glass?

Looks like a Corky Finger Gorgonian (or a similar gorgonian)

Good stuff. Super bright Dendros!

FS stands for “Free Stuff” right? If so, do you deliver?

Awesome bro - I don't have any cash so can I pay you Bitcoins for the dendros & pizzas? These "coins" are cool, they might be worth something in the future...

Dang bro! Hope all is well.

They look amazing! What do you feed them and how often? I'm currently trying to rehabilitate a frag that has suffered some neglect. I'm currently feeding small pieces of raw market shrimp. Each polyp is eating but no real tentacle extensions yet (just enough to hang onto food). Thanks!

Im curious how much you had to beat them to stay open during the day?
Is it a feeding response that you just trained them by offering food during daylight hours?

I target feed each dendro head spirulina mysis and spirulina brine shrimp. If I see that a head or two isn't open, I will squirt some reef roids on it and give it about 5 to 10 minutes. That usually entices them to "open up" and bring out their fork and knife (tentacles) so they can grab the mysis/brine.

Good luck and hit me up if you have any more questions.

Good question. When I first started I knew it was going to take some time and sure enough, it took me a few weeks and some a few months of consistently feeding them every single day during my light schedule hours. Most of them didn't bud for a very long time. Now it's second nature for me to feed them regularly and for them to be ready to eat as well as to bud out new babies.

Wish you had smaller frags! Love these things

Thanks for the info! I'll go pick up some new frozen spirulina/mysis over the weekend.
