Wow...much bigger than. My 3 little heads. Looks great. Mine still aren't completely out. Maybe 3/4 of the way.
 
I got mine last weekend. It is not opening up much, but looking OK. Last night, I gave it a few pellets of the Fauna Marine ultra LPS
food and it was buffing up like it was eating them. This one has yellow tentacles. I don't know what it is called.

I dont know if you guys know but ive talked to a few wholesalers and they have told me its illegal to collect aussie dendros at the moment they are protected etc. I have a friend who has some out of his personal collection has some great coral ill post pics when i get mine :)
 
Yeah that looks awesome. Sad to say..mine look almost exactly the same as a year ago when I first posted on this thread. Though I will see they've been coming out a little more frequently these days...but nothing like your.
 
I fed mine a bit too much I guess. This one last night was expanding way too much. I put a quarter on the out side of the tank behind it and the tip of all the tentacles were bigger than the quarter.

and the baby is getting bigger too. It has been extremely slow in getting a new head popping out for me. This one is by far the slowest I have seen, but I have zero experience with dendro besides duncan anyway :-)
