    My wife wants one. I think you are right about it being a great value. What are you planing for a feeding schedule?

    those really are awesome, takes a lot of target feeding. They were the first to go when I decided to convert back to a fowlr (mostly) tank. Great price too, I think I paid $25.00 for one about the same size.

    Those are so beautiful, I have always wanted a sun coral, but I don't think I would target feed them enough. Congrats on the add I hope they do well!

    I've got them placed where they get minor flow. Target feed them twice a. Plankton, frozen brine shrimp, frozen blood worms, PE Mysis and Rods Complete.
    Results so far? She's got 2+ new heads :)[​IMG]
