  Special Requirements and Information:
Sometimes called a "Lesser Knob Coral", this beauty has a pink body with tangerine polyps and lime green openings. Polyps open for feeding. These corals do better in a tank where there is a constant food source. If your tank has a high-end protein skimmer you will increase the difficulty of raising one of these.
Feeding should be light during the day with the full feeding at night. Feed small marine foods. Try and set a regular time for the full feed, and place the food directly over the coral. Once they're accustomed to your tank, they can be introduced to frozen foods such as brine shrimp, chopped blood worms squid.
