I am ordering this before I get one. The plan is this. If you are looking at my fts on the right side front I have my large zoa's colony. I am going to put the cup in the open spot with the clam in it to keep him elevated off the sand bed and surround it with other zoa's so it looks like a zoa garden on that whole side with the clam in the middle but up over it so the cant hurt it. It's the plan atleast. I think it will look cool. At least in my mind lol

I really like that idea I think that will look sweet! Do you think these would be best on the sanded or on rock? The guy said they are called war coral not sure though.

Tuff to tell looks kinda like a yellow polyp. I have seen the other corals on the sand bed. It really comes down to a lighting and flow thing. I would start everything u get one the sand bed to see how it reacts and gets use to the light then slowly move it up to a place you want it to be. If you want it up that is. Something have to have stronger light.

They need medium flow and moderate lighting.
