Green Star Polyp

Got this guy yesterday.. Have to say he looks awesome! 1st coral added to my 75 gallon das aquarium. Will be moved to my 180 as soon as it gets built. I haven't bought corals in many years. Stopped keeping tanks, but set this one up about a year ago. Paid 19.99 for him. Seem's like a decent deal.

I have him in medium flow.. Enough to move him without pushing him over. T5 lights for now.

Cell camera doesn't do the color justice.. Nice neon green

I grow mine on the back glass, but this coral can be a bit invasive so if you plan to have more corals...you may want to give it an island of its own.

Thanks.. he's not permanently attached yet.. I am seeing how he does for now. But I did put him on a larger rock. So he has room to grow.

You can 'trap' it up high to begin with.
Otherwise it will grow upwards towards the light and that pretty purple base will ooze over everything as the green tenticles sting everything.
It's a beauty, but doesn't play well with others.
