Nice! But you DO have to FEED these corals by hand....if not, they die.

Seriously, each head needs fed. IF you do that they will thrive!

I love them. They are some work. You do have to feed them at minimum once a week and do make sure you get most if not all of them. I feed mine about twice a week and jsut turn the pumps off and sprinkle some mysis. I've had them for many months and they're happy and healthy. Much more work though then a "normal" coral with zooxanthellae.

Feeding the sun coral is very easy thanks to DTs. I've had these for six or seven months. Started out about half this size. Haven't really fed each head. Just cut the pumps, turkey baste it with mysis, brine and DT's. It has really taken off since I added DTs to the menu.

Wich DT's? Also I have always wanted a single head of Sun Coral to see if I could grow a colony. Since I have to put my hands in the tank every day anyway. LOL!
