3s1k Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I did the Unique Coral live sale last weekend and grabbed a few pieces I wasn't familiar with. I just received them and have some questions 1. Galaxea coral - I read they like medium light/flow. They have long sweepers so dont place them close to anything else. Are they safe to place the 2 drags together or will sting each other? 2. Hydnophora - All the info I find is on branching and mine looks like encrusting. I have it on the sand in medium flow and light. 1 Quote Link to comment

I have it on the sand in medium flow and light. Looks like some nice frags. 😊 Hydnophora and Galaxea are both very mean corals so be careful. Don’t let them near anything. My Galaxea has 9” sweepers on occasion. The Hydnophora doesnt send out sweepers but will murder anything that touches it. Quote Link to comment

3s1k Posted April 27, 2019 Author Share Posted April 27, 2019 I got these 3 across as well. The Green Acro on the far left is all white this morning. The other 2 look the same. Any thoughts? Maybe to much light? I have a Kessil A360we and my tank is a IM Lagoon 25. 1 Quote Link to comment

3s1k Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 I had my off to the side of the kessil in the sand. Seemed to be doing ok after 24hrs. Both had some good PE this afternoon. 1 Quote Link to comment
