longtenticle nems are fairly hardy have 2 of them in my tank

they also get fairly large so they need at least a 30g or larger

Well now you get to get a bigger tank :).....not to be mean what so ever,sometimes better to do some research before you buy...or ask the question before

That's a long tentacle plate coral (Heliofungia). Not a long tentacle nem.

They are on the difficult side to keep. No one really knows why but they tend not to fare well in aquariums. The short tentacle Fungias are better choices and usually more colorful.

No way that plate is ever going to outgrow your 10 gallon. ;)
