Wireefman,
Each polyps around 2" in diameter. In the first pic the Colony is around 30 heads and about 12" wide. I bought them from a tiny 6 head frag. I target feed all my corals my own special blend of food every 2-3 days.The heads on my Acans usually double or triple in size within a few months

Well of course not. Not after seeing a fellow clown getting eaten by the duncan!

That looks photoshopped to me.When my duncans eat they close up around the food and pull their tantacles in.

The clown is hosting the Duncan.

As mentioned duncans close up when eating.

Here is a pic of mine under actinic lighting. They were so neon green, you could easily see them from across the room!

Here's another branching one for ya. I no longer have this one though.

What do you all feed your Duncans, and how do you feed them? I just got some recently and am thinking about starting to feed them.

KingFisher62: The first pic you posted, is that what they look like after they eat? one of mine looked a little bit like that yesterday and I was afraid it was not healthy or something. I dont' feed, but maybe it got a hold of something.

yes the first pic was right after i fed them. I am sure yours was just digesting something!

I usually use a turkey baster to feed mine mysis shrimp, flake food. pellets

Here Is an updated picture of mine.

Engloid · 04/06/2010, 12:12 AM

any tips on keeping the mess down when feeding?

Hiker_ · 04/06/2010, 02:12 PM

Here's mine when I first got it. Now it has 15+ heads.

If you only suck up a few mysis shrimp with your turkey baster and you are gentle enough you can feed each head with one or two shrimp with out a lot of waste. shutiing off the powerheads and filters while feeding will help!

Hiker_ · 04/06/2010, 05:30 PM

+1 King. Target feeding is the best way. I use a pipet to feed all my corals that require target feeding.
