oh no, it will eat fish?? mine is quite largeEither sand bed or placed on the rock is fine. If you have anything kicking up sand onto it then go for rock placement.
Just be aware too that they can on occasion eat fish and are often the winners when it comes to competition with other corals, so make sure it can't reach your other corals when it expands to full capacity and give it room to grow - they can get quite big within 6 months to a year.
Very rarely, but yes, they can fatally sting and/or eat fish as large as tangs. I've had it happen to me and read the odd report of it. I think it is more a case of mistaken identity or defence than the coral being deliberately predatory, as Elegance prefer to eat prey the size of brine and mysis shrimp. There is a higher chance of it happening if the tank is overcrowded and fish are forced to pass close by to it.oh no, it will eat fish?? mine is quite largeView attachment 51557
your kidding??, when i got it it didn't look that big until a couple of days after i put it in the tank, it was $80, he is not fully extended in that photo, mostly double that sizeThey don't need any supplemental iron, they get what they need from the seawater. Whether or not you place them in the gravel or in the rocks is your choice, but they should be tilted on a slight angle, not straight up and down. It's too big for your tank, you can send it to me. :D That coral would fetch $400-$500 here. Anything Australian and gold fetches a bloody fortune.
If it's gold and from Australia it brings a premium here. If I had a few boxes of those it would finance a trip there, lol.your kidding??, when i got it it didn't look that big until a couple of days after i put it in the tank, it was $80, he is not fully extended in that photo, mostly double that size
Red Sea salt is a great salt and what I was using. I changed purely from a cost standpoint.I use red sea pro coral is that a good one?
