  Special Requirements and Information:
An easy to maintain and great addition to your tank. While encrusting Montiporas don't require a high light source, the more light available - the more color.
Feed anytime during the day. Once they're accustomed to your tank, they can be introduced to frozen foods such as chopped blood worms, artemia or squid. Just remember that your coral will only accept food that's small enough for them to use. Consider feeding them directly with a turkey baster directly into the bubble areas. Make sure that you have other livestock in your tank to clean up any excess.
While encrusting corals do not require expert skills or a lot of attention, they do need good water conditions and should not be placed in a new tank.
