I got this little hammer 1 year ago. He had 2 small heads and 1 died after 2 days in my tank. Look at how fast this little sucker has grown.

Heres a few other pics of some in my tank. I feed them once a week. I feed them a mixture of seafood pureed in the blender with some Boyds Vita-chem mixed in. Its mostly food for my fish but the hungry little mouths of my corals open wide for it also.
Got the recipe from Melvsreef.com

Cheers everyone

Elegance corals are hard to keep. I dont have this one anymore. It was a birthday present from my Mother. I tried everything to save it but the white jelly claimed it after 1 month in my tank. I was really bummed....really.

Nice Corals!

Sorry to hear about the Elegance. I have one that looks identical to that in my tank... but I fear the worst. (unless I'm very lucky)

It seems some are hard to keep and others do really well. I beleive its because they were harvested in shallow waters and some from deeper waters. Eric Bornsman I beleive did a study on these corals. They also require nutrient rich waters and are found in lagoons around grassy muddy type bottom composition. I think mine was killed by my bright lights.

i got a hammer frag from my LFS about a month ago and i can already see three spots where new branches are starting to grow off. I got excited when i seen that. I have had my tank about a yr now but corals it in for about four months now and i am already seeing growth.
