Anyone have one?  Any experience or photos that you want to share.  I did a search here and nothing came up on the subject.  I just bought a red and blue one.

Aloha,

I googled and found this page which makes me believe that they require similar care as The Brain Coral and Bubble Corals because of the underlying skeletal structure.

Mahalo,

Thanks Mark. Forgot to mention I already did the google search thing and read all I could find before I bought it. Was looking for personal experiences if anyone had any.   They look really nice from what i found. The one I bought is a pretty small frag with great color. I'll post a picture after I pick it up tomorrow.

Care is actually more like a Chalice but they are much more difficult.  Awesome corals though!  One of my favs...

I have one. They're particularly susceptible to a few pests, but yes, care is similar to a chalice...acan...and scoly.

I have two and really like them. Low in the tank seems to be best, while one likes it about 1/3 the way off the bottom.
