i am about to get a frogspawn coral and would like to know if i am able to keep it under my current tank conditions...

5.5g nano reef
1x20w coralife 50/50 mini compact
1x rotating powerhead
1xpenguin mini bio-wheel filter (for water flow)

i already have a hammertip coral that seems to me to be doing quite well.

I would say if you have a hammer, than the frogspawn should be fine. Just make sure they aren't too close to each otherwise they may sting one another.

Well, two things to consider IMO.

Frogspawn [and Hammer,etc] IME are fairly sensitive to water quality ... which is a tough balance on a small nano. It can be done, just want to say that IMO this is not the easiest corals for a nano [and while can be found via frags, not so commonly].

Growth [if healthy] will also be a problem. My single head frogspawn frag I got last August now is 5 heads, taking up 3 times the size. Add on longer sweeper-like tentacles ... and that's a lot of space.

Just my 2 cents. Good luck with it :)
