I have a Mancini Aerolata that came in as a hitchhiker. It has since broken off the rock and lives in the sand bed. It’s now 2-3” across.

I would like some help and suggestions with long term care. It’s about a 18 months old.

The rose coral just needs moderate to high light, random medium flow and some nutrients in the water for the long term. They can color up under our lights, but it takes a while.

I had a colony a while back from LR, but lost it in a move. I still have the lesser starlet coral that was the other hitchhiker and 20 months later it is going strong.
