I picked this up recently and was curious if anyone has had any success with it.

I had other turbinaria like scroll and regular pagoda. They were easy to grow. Once was tempted to buy the branching pagoda from WWC. They use to have a bunch of it. But pagoda can get big and I'm limited on low light real estate.

Haha yours looks does the same. You are only the 3rd person I have seen with one, and as slow as they grow it may be awhile before it gets around

I was reading up on them when I got it and they just came out of pertected corals. It has tubes coming out all around. It will be interesting to watch this on growing.

Probably one of my favorites. Mine has doubled from a frag but it took about a year. No pictures and the tank will be sold on Saturday but it has bright yellow polyps at night and a light purple body. I keep mine in quite low light, basically in the shadow of a tabling SPS, and it seems to be doing well.
