New Coral

[Nick540]

Here is the first peice of coral that i have put in my tank. It is a hammer tip here is a picture. I have been researching a bit on it but please tell me any info you know about it.

Looks like a torch coral (Euphyllia glabrescens) to me. Medium light and medium flow. When healthy he will really come out and extend those tentacles. You can feed it if you want to supplement but Ive kept them without feeding. Brine, cycopeze, small pieces of meaty foods, all of those will do the trick if you want to supplement it.

Now that I look at the pic it can also be a branching hammer. Same care instructions.

thanks for the advice. It seems to be doing well so far, if i dont need to feed it now i wont but maybe i will later.
