Anyone keeping this coral? What reccomendations do you all have? Seen a really cool one today for sale at LFS for 30.00. I want to get it.

pretty much an easy to keep lps, medium to low light, moderate flow, in your tank I'd say anywhere on or near the sandbed would be fine

I have a piece that is about the size of a baseball+, its about half way up in my tank. So mod flow/ mod light. It does better with random flow from the power heads alternate. Make sure you have some flow for the polyps to sway back and forth. Some actually prefer higher flow rates though, so see where it likes it at the best.

Low flow w/ little bit of random movement. Never target feed.
