I let my Daughter pick out a coral she would like for our 45 jbj tank and she chose a Rasta Leather - Sinularis Flexibilis. I researched this coral and the information tells me that it grows rapidly, needs lots of space and emits terpenes toxins. In keeping this coral activated carbon should be used and changed regularly to absorb these toxins. This has me thinking of "chickening out" about getting one. I am looking for some feed back from those of you that have kept this specimen and negative or positive experiences with this coral. Thanks.
 
Carbon is needed anyhow. Water movement(indirect) low-medium . If you get it right it will stretch out alot. Before a power outage
