Sorry, cannot find a picture for jewel coral...
I don't have Digital Camera to take down its picture...
as far as husbandary is concerned, i have not come across anyone who feeds these corals. these corals are symbiotic. they need good flow and occasional zooplankton, freshly hatched brine shrimp and bacterioplankton. cyclopeeze is okay but not ideal becos it is of a bigger size.
u need not use any syringe metd at all.

what i mean is, they only open when feeding time, they dont open up like other corals even though it isnt feeding time?

Additional plus for cyclopeeze; it can also use as feed for the fishes.

Here is a link describing what is cyclopeexe:

guys,

though spsman i tried n is success, I would not suggest u go and get one and revive it. Better to get a healthy one. Leave those to the experts. Otherwise, we are just fuelling the LFS to get corals healthy or not.

peace bro.

thanks Spsman.

saw the website. very interesting. but is it more for fresh water?
would like to know more first. thanks.

You can get it from most marine LFS like Aqua Marin at Jalan Kayu, PetMart at Serangoon North, Aquarium Iwarna at Pasir Ris, Paradiz Reef at Lavender, etc.
