Hollywoodstunner agression question

[Slothman]

I have a Hollywood stunner chalice frag, and it’s sweeper tentacles are going crazy. I was wondering if there’s any way to hinder this aggression. I only have a 20g long and this boi seems to need more space at only being a frag still

I honestly have never seen a sweeper tentacle that long an my Hollywood stunner. I really don't think there is much you can do about it. I could be wrong. They are very aggressive though. They also grow crazy fast! Mine went from about an inch to the size of a dinner plate in less than 2 years. Oddly enough, it doesn't seem to bother my acans or GSP.

They are really aggressive chalices, long sweepers are common which is why many reefers don't have them, I practically had to give mine to an lfs and it was the size of a dinner plate or more.

My clownfish eats the sweepers :) Slurps then up like spaghetti.

Unfortunately nothing you can do, it's an aggressive coral for sure

I take it back. It's more like the size of a punch bowl. You'll definitely have to keep it trimmed back.
Good luck.

Victor from world wide corals says when long sweepers come out you can just cut them and they’ll regrow
