I got a tiny little piece from a freind, I mean small maybe two polyps on it. Now it is overgrowing the rocks in a couple of spots, grows really fast. It's gnarley looking too!

The Sunflower Coral is one tough customer. My chiller just died the other day, allowing my Red Sea Max reef tank to reach at least 90F, from its usual 79F, and this coral came through with flying colors, literally! My Mushroom anemones also survived, although they shrunk a bit.

I have had some success with yellow polyps, to the point that they have become a nuisance in my tank. They are growing on the tank walls and are attacking my lps and sps corals. I'm now seeking a way to cull or eliminate them.

I have very nice large group of Fox coral that I have had in my 125 gal. tank for 5 months now, low in the tank and under metal halide lighting. Look like large puffy pillows during the day. Use Dt's and marine snow for food. Give them lots of room as they expand about 5 times their size during the daytime. Under low flow as well. Easy and beautiful coral.

Great beginner coral. It will do best placed in low curent at the top of a live rock set up.

I got a frag of branching hammer, it's a great coral and thrives in low light levels.

I have kept the Fox Coral in my 150 gallon reef tank for about 8months and it has done excellent under metal halide lighting also comes out to its full extent and it looks incredible. Recommend this coral to anyone who is trying to keep it. It's one very attractive coral.

Elegance corals back in the day were fairly hardy to keep but in the coming years they have been more and more difficult to keep. Most people think this is because they are now more rare on the usual areas of the reef and come from deeper down on the slopes. Take care in the specimen that you are purchasing. Make sure it is not damaged and in top shape. Damaged elegance corals tend to die very quickly.

Have had this coral for a few days now and love it. I had to mount mine to live rock using a two part epoxy to keep them from tumbling over. Neon green frogspawn is the best looking in my opinion.

This is a very easy to keep soft coral. It can come in a few different colours, right now I have 2 small yellow guys. They are very cute, the moment I saw it in the store I knew I had to have it. Very easy to feed, doesn't need lots of light, looks GREAT under actinic :). I recommend trying to find an aquacultured variety.

Best of luck.
