  Special Requirements and Information:
Not always available, but always worth it...if you know what you're doing! The coat of this coral can be easily damaged by rubbing, so make sure to be gentle with it.
A quick growing coral when the water conditions are right. Hydnophora should be placed high in the tank. Close to the light source, but not so close to be affected by the heat. Feeding should be light during the day with the full feeding at night. Once they're accustomed to your tank, they can be introduced to frozen foods such as chopped blood worms.
Be careful where you place them. They are aggressive and will attack other corals if given the opportunity!
