SRC Member pokmingsheng Posted November 10, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted November 10, 2010 i'm no expert here, but you can do a search for non photosynthetic corals on google example of such can be sun corals and sea fans, there are many more out there.. just take note they need to be target-fed Quote My Decomissioned 2ft Cube: (31st March 2011) Carpe Diem~!!!
