@Braves Fan

I bought one recently and looked into care for it. I have mine placed mid level in the tank (medium light), with medium flow. It does put out long sweepers like many other LPS so I moved him away from other frags. I don't think they play nice, just based on the length of the tentacles. It didn't get any other coral because I noticed it the first night and moved him. It definitely grabs onto food when I feed the other corals. I feed Reef Roids, Oysterfeast and some frozen food with Mysis and bits of clam, etc. Haven't had it long enough to comment on growth, but the color seems to be holding on it.
