This coral has it all, looks great under regular light and looks event better under UV with intense yellow and pink. Another benefit is it is extremely forgiving if you have kalk swing this coral will just keep on going.

One of the Classics and a must-have IMO . Funny thing is I just got another frag of it today for my new tank. As you can see from the pic a couple of posts up it did well for me in my last tank.......man I miss that tank! ( had to move)

I bought this frag from JF at a TN swap in April 2014.

I mounted it immediately, up high, lots of flow. It encrusted pretty rapidly but seems to have stalled out when I upgraded my LED's. Wonder if I might need to supplement with some T5's. Here's the frag today...

Taking any and all advice.

Still one of my top 5 favorite sps. Here is mine over time. First pic is under very high light from halides. After the switch to LED's and lower in the tank it changed/improved in coloration. Higher flow helped it fill in the branches.

I have found this coral to be one of the hardiest sps I have ever had. It has handled at least 4 moves now without a problem while many other corals have not made the transitions.
