Fox Coral - Nemenzophyllia Sp.

[debincalif]

It seems I don't hear much about this coral, which I think is quite beautiful. Is there anyone who keeps fox corals willing to share pics and experiences? I'm considering adding one to my system and would like to know more about them.

This has always been a very tricky coral to keep IME. They hardly ever show up at any of the LFS in my area. I asked one of the owners about this and he said that people just don't have the best of luck with these corals. Goniopora and Elegance corals are a couple others that don't show up very often as well. More horror stories than anything else with these I guess. Good luck though.

lower flow and definitely lower light.I managed to kill two specimens with too much light and too much flow. Mine now sits on the bottom way off to the side halfway back and couldn't be happier.
beautiful corals, just have to find where they are happy. I use a turkey baster with some PE Mysis twice a week
