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!
