Thanks! Have exp with the branching kind- wall anything makes me nervous but these caught my eye; they were massive in store. Need to give them more room and guessing less flow
There’s nothing wrong with wall euphyllia it just gets a bad hype. I’ve had wall hammers for 5 years that survived tank crashes. But not fish eating it

I currently have two wall hammers, they are always open and happy

I actually find them on a day to day basis to be hardier than normal branching ones. But. If an issue does develop, such as a fish nipping and causing an infection, they are more difficult to frag/save. But, I’ve done it before. It’s just got a few more steps than dremeling off a branch

Thanks for the props on the hologram. It goes unnoticed because it’s not a bright coral like my others, but it’s really interesting to me because it’s got 4 colors. Green mouth markings, purple stalks, gold bands, and blue tips. I’ve not seen any hammer like this before, so I had to get it
