    I picked one up on Friday @ NSA. How often/when should I be feeding this guy? Currently he's getting mysis every evening when the lights go out.

    I feed mine mysis too. I have had mine about a year and is doinggreat. To keep everything else from eating the food I just cut the topoff of a 2 liter bottle and cover the coral with it. Just feed throughthe top. It helps if you turn the pumps off for a little while to keepit from blowing over. I feed mine during the day so it will stay out during the day more. I think you would be good just feeding it 3 times a week. Hope this helps.

    Anytime [​IMG]. You will be really happy with it. Mine is my favorite coral by far. I was a little worried about it at first because they are supposedly sooo hard to keep. IME as long as you feed it and your water quality is good it will thrive. They like quite a bit of flow too. Maybe some indirect current on it. As far as the lighting I have mine in the bottom of the tank out in the open whereas other people keep theirs under ledges. Whatever makes yours happy though [​IMG]
