Nice looking corals

I have a question ,,, I have never seen a Button Scoly & know nothing about them

are they just regular Scoly's that are just small and will grow into regular sized Scoly's or ,, will they stay small?

I have 2 button scolies, one of which came from CC.

From my understanding of regular sized scolies (I don't have one of those) their care is similar. I keep mine on the sandbed and occasionally feed them meaty items, which they very eagerly eat. They are theorized to be a different, as yet unnamed, species compared to the regulars. (BTW "Scolies" are no longer Scolymia. They have recently been reclassified as Homophyllia australis.) They do not seem to grow to the size of regular scolies. I've had mine a year. It is hard to gauge their growth since they are normally pretty inflated, I think they have gotten a smidge bigger.

Thanks for that info Mirya

how big or yours ? I had thought about getting one

Mirya · Jul 19, 2015

The one I got from CC is blue and green and is close to 2" when fully inflated. My other one is red and only about 1" fully inflated. I'd take pics of them, but my lights are dimming so they aren't looking very photogenic right now (ie they are deflating for the night). When I've snuck up on them in the middle of the night and looked at them, they get nearly fully deflated and fully extend their feeding tentacles and look a bit alien.

Mine are in a Nuvo8 aquarium, so they are perfectly suited for that size aquarium.

Here are my two button scolies under "daylight" and stimulating fluorescence. The one I got from CC is at the top. The red one is a little ***** because my pistol shrimp had recently molested it.
