i feed my hammer twice a week..and it has doubled in size the past year..it was one of the first corals i got and when my tank finally got stable it really took off..i have not moved it in a long time..when i did last it was really mad and did not open much so i moved it back and i have just left it alone..it sucked about 2 months ago i had a little fight with brown jelly but i caught it pretty quick and did not lose much at all..about the curved tips..that is just how it was..i had a other one that never got tips like that..it was more of a gray blue color..but i traded that away

I appologize I thought you were referring to the picture. yeah if you can post a picture of your coral I can identify it from there, It may be a hybrid of some sort. I have a few hybrids in my tank that are a hammer/frogspawn/torch mix.
