Just bought 6. Anybody have experience raising them?

They come from 20m down but the literature says they will "adapt" to most lighting.

I will take care not to burn them with the MH (too expensive to kill)

They are very easy to take care of. They love being fed and they will be fine under halides. Once they grow a few heads you can frag it if you want. Good luck on the awesome coral!

Did you start them off in Low light and move them higher on the reef? (I will shade the MH's for a few days)

Do they like shade?

I just got back from FedEX with them and can't wait to get home and put them in the tank.

I bought 6 heads but Tyrone sent me 8!! Each has two heads but one has a cut into the side of one stalk but it seems to be doing ok. They were also advertised w/o babies but at least one has a little critter (that makes 8 1/2).

They have not sprung out into full glory. I keep alterning the light but the one with the highest number of Lumens is out more-go figure.

I had never seen one before I bought these.
