Does anyone else have a hard time keeping this thriving?! I have bought 3 now and I can't get them to keep going. They get so big, then start falling apart...literally. Is this why they are so "rare" and freaking expensive?! Lol

It certainly sounds more like a Kenya tree and not a pink Nepthea ... Will take over your tank if you don't remove it!Mine was so prolific it spawned babies all over the tank... I was just told it was a Kenya tree.
How do your other soft corals do with that?Hi,
I been growing the pink nepthea for some time now. Watch out for your nitrates and phosphate level. I am running my tank in the lower end.
Hope this helps.
I am not 100% sure, but I don’t think it’s the same.Ok. Stupid question here:
Is this the same species as my green nephthea tree? I've never heard of what I have being referred to as invasive.
Oh! Ok. Must be different then. My tree is all soft.I am not 100% sure, but I don’t think it’s the same.
the Japanese pink nepthea has little prickly calcium tips all over.
Green sinularia.Ok. Stupid question here:

Thanks!Green sinularia.
One marine biologist says feed as you would nps. Also I wonder if they thrive better in cooler waters.Does anyone else have a hard time keeping this thriving?!

High Nitrates and Phosphate will melt this coral. Treat it like a SPS.One marine biologist says feed as you would nps. Also I wonder if they thrive better in cooler waters.
I keep my tank around 76 to 78. Now that the nitrates/phosphate issue is under control, it is growing like crazy. No feeding, other than what it gets from the water. I love this coral. It is VERY different from the regular Kenya trees/green neptheas. Has a very different texture.One marine biologist says feed as you would nps. Also I wonder if they thrive better in cooler waters.
