I just got a few today but this one i have never seen before.

Its organge - yellow and green on new growth with pinkish and purple polyps. I believe its called a Joker Cyphastrea. Ill get better pics of it tomorrow but its Deff got alot more color on this one than the typical cyphastreas like meteor showers and bizzaros and other common typea we all see.

As for a question of how to grow cyphastreas. Just out them on whatever and they hrow. But they dont like high or medium light. They like low light. Ive had them die in high and medium placements in my tank. They do better in shade or on the bottom
