    Nice one! Too bad my lps labels them as " brains" and ask a arm and a leg for them.

    Looks great, I'm excited for you. Word of advice, from the pic (may just be the angle) it looks close to that rock. Bubble coral are susceptible to tears on substrate (crushed coral especially) and rocks. They will get infected and die so make sure you have room between the rock and it.

    Ok thanks for the comments. It wasnt that close last night when added. But fully open it was close. But hard to find a spot with low flow with 1900+ gph in display. Oh yea $59.99

    What an awesome coral you have there! $59.99 is not a bad price at all for that color/size of bubble coral ;)
