Has anybody had any experiences with these corals? LiveAquaria is selling frags and I was wondering how people have done with them. And please post pics if you have any.

I just bought one from my LFS, although mine has a greyish colored base and purple "feathers." So far it's doing OK in my QT, and it's extending during the day. Of course, I can't say how it will do long-term, yet.

cool, keep us posted, do you have a pic?

I had similar looking purple coral:

Was listed as purple lemnalia, lasted not too long - had a rot at the base, I fragged it, but frags didn't grow and eventually were lost in rockwork.

Likes light and flow, and I fed the whole tank by the fine food.

Here's a bad pic of mine:

It was in quarantine a week, now in the DT. I'll see how it does.

Lotus, are you supplementing it with any particular foods?

I've only had it about 10 days now, but I do add some Phyto Feast to the tank every couple of days. I can't really tell if it's eating it, but I'll try to observe a little better.

I've added about 10 corals in the last week, so I'm trying to keep an eye on all of them to make sure they're doing OK.
